On Saturday, May 9, 2026, members of your CHP San Francisco Area teamed up with the Scouts of America, San Francisco Fire Department, San Francisco Sheriff’s Office members, other first responders, and several community organizations to co-host our annual youth bicycle safety rodeo near Stonestown Galleria, in San Francisco, CA.
CHP and San Francisco Sheriff’s Office bike patrol officers worked with youth attendees to make their way through a challenging obstacle course and then a group ride on the streets to apply their safety skills in live traffic. Free bicycle helmets were fitted and passed out to those who came unprepared and basic bicycle checks and tune-ups were conducted by bicycle mechanics at the event. This event was a great opportunity for the kids and their families to interact with first responders and learn important information about bicycle safety, while also testing their abilities and giving them a place to learn the rules of the road.
Bicycles and motorists have to share the roads and be aware of each other. Let’s ensure the safety of each other by following the rules of the road and being focused while also staying vigilant. Ride smart, ride safely and always wear your helmet to minimize serious injuries.
👏 Thank you to all the first responders and community partners who came out and supported the event in one way or another. Your participation aided in the success of this event and we appreciate all of you and your assistance during the event.
