The Bicycle Music Festival

About the Bicycle Music Festival:

Our mission is to promote bicycle-based musicians, bicycle culture in general, and the broader sustainability movement, through free, participatory, bicycle-based music events.

June 21, 2008 marks the second annual Bicycle Music Festival: the next evolution of the world’s only 100% bicycle-based festival. With 30 volunteers, 15 bands, 7 festival stops, no prices, no permits, Critical Mass-style bicycle party caravans between the festival stops, a 600 Watt pedal-powered P/A system, and zero use of cars and trucks, San Francisco’s Bicycle Music Festival may be the greenest music festival ever conceived.

    there was a “PAPAFEST” in illinois. that same weekend. i had my own “hypothermia festival” shivering on the beautiful oregon coast. i always overdo the remedy so i headed WAYYY inland to the heat to be found there. san francisco can be a little chilly, but it’s also right next to warm places-
    bicycling-it’s “cool” and a warm social scene. i grew up next to the michigan sea
    (lake michigan) where you get that cool seabreeze and warmth all in one.
