The Davis Bicycle Loop

In 2007 the City of Davis sprayed markings on bike paths establishing a loop around Davis at the suggestion of a local group, Davis Bicycles!. This route, now known as the Davis Bike Loop, offers safe passage for cyclists (and pedestrians) in a ring around town. The loop features several underpasses and overpasses, grade separated bike paths and amenities. The main portion of the loop totals a distance of 12 miles and is marked in green with the Davis highwheeler bike logo, the words "Davis Bike Loop" and directional markers. Riders who follow the loop will travel on the Dave Pelz I-80 Overcrossing, the I-80 Underpass, scenic Davis neighborhoods and through community amenities such as the UC Davis Arboretum and Davis Community Park. Complete bicycle maps are available in kiosks at various locations on the loop. For more information about the Davis Bike Loop, contact the Public Works Department at (530) 757-5686.
