Volunteer Bicycle Patrol

Members of the Volunteer Bicycle Patrol (VBP), one of five patrol groups in the Volunteer Trail Safety Patrol of the East Bay Regional Park District, ride District trails on their bikes. Though VBP members have the same responsibilities as do the members of the other patrol groups, a special interest is to meet other District visitors on bicycles, to provide them with education and safety advice, and to encourage them to follow District rules governing bicycle use on District lands. In their patrol activities, VBP members help to:

• protect the safety of all District park and trail users,
• protect and preserve District resources (plants, wildlife, trail surfaces, and so on), and
• promote enjoyable experiences for all District park and trail users.

The Volunteer Bicycle Patrol has been supporting the East Bay Regional Park District from within the District's Police Department since 1989. Like all Volunteer Trail Safety Patrol members, we carry District volunteer photo ID cards.
