Bike Anywhere Day

For more than 30 years, SANDAG has hosted Bike Anywhere Day to celebrate National Bike Month in May to alleviate traffic and reduce air pollution while promoting biking as a fun, sustainable, and healthy transportation choice. On Bike Anywhere Day, riders can explore more than 1,800 miles of bikeways throughout the San Diego region.

Bike Anywhere Day is a free event open to everyone. It encourages participants of all ages to bike to work, school, or anywhere. Participants can pedal to one of the 100 pit stops across the region to pick up a free commemorative Bike Anywhere Day 2026 t-shirt and enjoy a quick break with refreshments and snacks, while supplies last.

The annual event takes place on Thursday, May 21, from 6:30 to 9:30 a.m. The map includes more than 100 pit stop locations, from Oceanside to El Cajon, and Tijuana.

In 2025, more than 10,000 pit stop visits were recorded across the region. This year, registered participants will be automatically entered into the Bike Anywhere Day Sweepstakes for the chance to win one of five e-bikes, courtesy of Ridepanda.

Participants can pick up a free commemorative t-shirt and enjoy refreshments and snacks at any Bike Anywhere Day Pit stop on the morning of Thursday, May 21, while supplies last. Pit stop hosts include community organizations, local businesses, healthcare providers, schools, and government agencies.
