Announcing the Theme of the 2022 California Bicycle Summit: CONNECTING

January 26, 2022/in The Latest /by Dave Snyder

On April 6-9, 2022, we hope you will join us in Oakland to strengthen and grow the movement for sustainable transportation. The California Bicycle Summit, held every two years, always feels like a momentous occasion, but gathering in person after the past two years is even more compelling. The theme for this year’s Summit is CONNECTING.

We didn’t pick the theme just because we are thrilled to get together with all of you (though we are!). CONNECTING is about many different types of connections: 

  • Creating connected neighborhoods where people of all ages can get to school, to work, or to the store without being forced to get in a car
  • Connecting to our bodies through the joyful movement of riding a bike
  • Connecting to the planet and creating a transportation system that aligns with the needs of Earth’s natural systems
  • Connecting the varied issues that we must address together: racism, lack of housing, and streets that are unsafe for many reasons, to name just a few
  • Connecting across communities and cultures to better understand and support each other
  • Connecting to create equitable communities where the joy of bicycling is an easy choice

The 2022 California Bicycle Summit is a can’t-miss event for people who care about biking

Speakers at the 2022 California Bicycle Summit will include community activists, California decision-makers, bicycle advocates, industry leaders, and planners designing the next generation of safer streets. They will present 32 exciting breakout sessions on a wide range of topics, including:

  • The promise and reality of Caltrans shift to support active transportation
  • Success stories of intersectional bike advocacy
  • Access to biking for people with disabilities
  • Two design symposia where engineers and planners will share cutting edge street designs
  • Accounts from the leaders of ride-outs, the grassroots biking events spreading across the country
  • The importance of community bike shops: how to make them excellent, how to support them
  • Black and POC-rooted solutions for mobility and empowerment
  • The still-growing impact of e-bikes
  • The intersections of active transportation with housing policy and climate action
  • Reports from Finland, Latin America, and across California about how to improve bicycle mode share
  • And much more

The event will also host fun and informational bike rides and social events:

  • Tours of infrastructure in the East Bay and San Francisco, including visiting the state’s only edge lane road
  • Visits to outstanding community bike shops
  • Recreational rides on the Bay Area’s beautiful backroads
  • A chance to join the famous and fabulous East Bay Bike Party, a rolling celebration of biking, music, and dancing that takes place every second Friday
  • A movie night featuring California’s best bike-themed short films

We’re delighted to bring the Summit to beautiful Uptown Oakland. Plenary sessions will be in the gorgeous 1926 art deco California Ballroom; breakout sessions will be held at the OakStop, a top-notch locally- and Black-owned event center. Telegraph Avenue in front of the venue will be closed to cars and open for socializing during the Summit.

Oakland, home of the Original Scraper Bike Team, enjoys a vibrant, diverse culture where powerful bike advocates collaborate with bike-friendly leadership in city government. We are proud to showcase The Town’s active and creative bike scene and fabulous art and architecture.

We invite anyone passionate about bicycling to join us—whether you’re a bike advocate, city official, planner, or a CalBike member who simply cares about making the world healthier, more just, and more sustainable and wants to learn more. See you in April!
