Local bike advocacy organizations encourage and support cycling tourism.


The San Joaquin Bike Coalition (SJBC) is a volunteer-based 501c3 organization, with a mission to promote bicycle safety and improve the means to use alternative transportation in San Joaquin County. Through outreach and events, SJBC will perform three fundamental functions:

  1. Advocate for bicyclists’ and pedestrians’ interests in county and city governmental policies

  2. Provide resources and education to pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists to promote safety and awareness

  3. Work with citizens and likeminded organizations throughout the county to promote bicycle and pedestrian friendly communities.



Many people like the idea of traveling by bicycle but don’t know how to get started. While experienced riders know the simplicity of bike travel is one of its great joys, to a curious newcomer the questions and choices can be overwhelming. Below we answer some of the common questions that beginning bicycle travelers often ask and provide some tips to demystify cycling.
