12th Annual Fall Bike Fest

Published on October 03, 2025

Over 750 community members came out for a bike-filled fun day at our Fall Bike Fest last Saturday!  The event has grown tremendously from its humble start as a traffic safety bike rodeo in the City Hall parking lot 12 years ago. The 2025 edition featured two guided bike rides, a brand-new Little Loop course for Cupertino’s youngest riders, on-bike games, and lots of bike-themed activities - all in addition to that bike rodeo. Collectively, this year’s participants and volunteers biked over 1,300 miles during Bike Fest. That’s the equivalent of a bike ride to the Grand Canyon and back! Even more incredibly, 72 miles of that was contributed by the 275 tricycles, training wheel bikes, and scoot bikes that rode 2028 laps of the Little Loop! 

Mayor Chao gave the keynote address, emphasizing Cupertino's commitment to traffic safety, while Vice-Mayor Moore and Santa Clara County Supervisor Abe-Koga also each said a few words. Bicycle Pedestrian Commissioners Eshelbeck, Marcy, and Wolfe came out to volunteer, along with Sustainability Commissioner Padgaonkar. Representatives from both CUSD and FUHSD also came out to help. Many, many thanks to all of them and to the 140 volunteers who generously donated their time and talents for the day. Bike Fest could not happen without each and every one of them.
