A Message from Slow Roll Buffalo Cofounder Seamus Gallivan

As Slow Roll Buffalo cofounder and our lead messenger for the past decade of providing inclusive community experiences that connect people, places and causes by bicycle, I’m here to share that I’ve lovingly resigned from my positions on our board, staff and squad, effective today. I’ve been working quietly for a while to ensure a smooth exit, and throughout the final rides of the season have savored the beauty in this community we’ve created together.  […]

Statement on the Future of Humboldt Parkway

    Since the founding of Slow Roll Buffalo in 2014, we have advocated for safer streets and social connection as an antidote to segregation, most notably beginning with our 2016 Parkway Revival Ride that took over the Scajaquada Expressway for bicycles to envision a better-connected community.

Slow Roll’s 10th Season Schedule Revealed!

By |2023-05-16T15:53:58-04:00May 16th, 2023|News|0 Comments

Now a renowned movement and nonprofit organization, Slow Roll Buffalo started on a whim in the summer of 2014, when the concept for a free community bike ride popularized in Detroit was offered for expansion to bike lovers in Buffalo. Slow Roll Buffalo’s maiden voyage gathered more than 200 bicyclists for a spirited roundtrip ride guided by a safety squad of volunteers from downtown to the Central Terminal and MLK Park with a party back at its starting point; after doubling in size for the next ride on the West Side, founding riders knew that something special was forming.  […]
