BikeBus: Inner City to Open Langa
BikeBus: Inner City to Open Langa
Join Friends of the Active Mobility Forum (AMF) for a special BikeBus from Cape Town's inner city to Open Langa on Sunday, 25 October 2026!
Taking place on the final day of Design Week South Africa and during October Transport Month, we're bringing cyclists together for a group ride connecting the inner city, Observatory and Langa.
Our destination is Open Langa, a community-led Open Streets celebration championed by Langa Bicycle Hub and its partners. For the day, sections of Langa's streets will be transformed into car-free public spaces filled with music, art, cycling, community activities and local businesses.
The BikeBus is an opportunity to experience Cape Town by bicycle, connect with fellow riders and support the movement for safer, more accessible and people-friendly streets.
We'll travel together, with a stop in Observatory to welcome more cyclists before continuing to Langa. After spending the afternoon at Open Langa, we'll ride back to the inner city as a group.
