INITIATIVES
Bike Racks
“Having the attractive bike racks just adds to your Downtown . . . If we’re asking people to ride their bikes downtown to be involved, to come have lunch or anything else, we want to give them a safe place to lock their bikes up. It goes hand in hand”
- Kathryn Siddle, Chair |
Bike Valet
Leave your car at home and hop on your bicycle! Head down to the Lodi Farmer's Market on Thursday evenings and park your bike at the FREE Bike Lodi Valet located on the corner of Oak Street and School Street.

Bike Rodeo
The World of Wonders Science Museum, San Joaquin County Public Health and Bike Lodi held a Bike Rodeo on the top floor of the Lodi Parking Garage. T-shirts and goodie bags were given to all participants. Young cyclists were taught road safety tips and guided through obstacle courses.

Themed RidesThanks to perfect fall weather, our first Sandhill Crane Ride was a huge success. Cyclists met in Woodbridge and headed out to the Sandhill Crane Sanctuary for a private viewing of hundreds of migrating birds as they landed for the evening. The riders were guided by Bike Lodi volunteers making sure no one was left behind and arrived safely back at Flight Lounge. Put this event on your calendar for next year. You won't want to miss this!

Bike to Work DayLeave the car at home, dust off the bike, and enjoy your commute for once!
Here's the scoop: The City of Lodi, San Joaquin Council of Governments Dibs, and Bike Lodi partner each year for a day in May to host Bike to Work Day. Volunteers and sponsors generously donate coffee to go with home-baked goods and snacks. This event is open to all, so ride on by before school or work. |
Lodi GreenlineA rail-to-trail project transforms an unused rail corridor into a vibrant public place. When converted into green space, Lodi’s unused Union Pacific spur line will become a valuable community facility, as well as a new economic driver in the region. These corridors are a natural fit for bicycle and pedestrian travel, having gradual grades and marked crossings. Through a process known as railbanking, the railroad can retain ownership of the corridor in perpetuity while permitting use of the right-of-way as a bicycling and walking trail.
