Huntington Beach Events Bicycle Information
 
There are 800 miles of bicycle
trails in Orange County with
some of the most scenic spots
located along the ocean in
Huntington Beach. An eight and
one-half mile path runs along
the the beach parallel to
Pacific Coast Highway beginning
at Warner Avenue to the north
and ending near Brookhurst
Avenue to the south. Cross
Brookhurst stoplight and
discover the paved Santa Ana
River trail which extends over
26 miles through Orange County.
Serious riders can experience a
60 mile workout!
Bicyclists and
roller bladers share the paved
Huntington Beach path with
pedestrian traffic. Be
aware and ride defensively as
you will find people and pets
crossing the path. State
law requires children riding
bicycles in public to wear
helmets for protection. Bicycle
lanes are often provided on city
streets; cyclists must travel
the same direction as traffic,
obeying vehicle rules and
regulations.
The Orange
County Transportation Authority
(bus system) provides racks for
bicycles. When boarding,
tell the bus driver you will be
loading your bike. You can pull
down the handle of the rack
located on the front of the bus
with one hand. There is no need
to lean your bike against a bus.
The rack features clearly marked
directions for front and back
wheel placement. When
departing, tell the bus driver
you will be unloading your bike.
Be sure to exit the front of the
bus when doing so.
*Speed limits along beachfront
paths in Huntington Beach are
