Join us for a scenic oceanfront ride at Bike the Coast, San Diego’s iconic cycling event, returning for its annual ride on Oct. 24, 2026. Participants of all ages and experience levels can enjoy a variety of courses along the beautiful Highway 101, with distances ranging from the 7 and 15-mile Family Rides to the 25, 50, and 100-mile courses that take cyclists through multiple iconic beach towns, including Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach, and Del Mar.
All courses finish at the Oceanside Pier, where participants are greeted with a lively finish festival. The post-ride celebration is open to the public, whether you're cheering on riders, spending the day by the ocean, or simply looking for some festival fun, all are welcome! Here you'll find local food and drinks, live music, and a beer garden hosted by BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse, with proceeds benefiting Bike MS. Bike the Coast offers an unforgettable way to enjoy San Diego’s scenic waterfront, support a great cause, and celebrate cycling with friends, family, and the local community.
