an authentic part of Aptos’ community

Aptos Post Office Jumps

In 1986, local kids in Aptos, California, started building dirt jumps near the post office. These jumps, known as the Aptos Post Office Jumps, became a hub for the youth, promoting creativity and camaraderie. Over the years, they evolved into a world-famous course, attracting riders globally to display their skills.

When Aptos St. BBQ opened in 2009, its first loyal customers were the cycling community frequenting the jumps. The restaurant and the riders built a strong bond, making it a favorite spot for BBQ after a day on the jumps.

Although the jumps have been dismantled, Aptos St. BBQ continues to serve the cycling community, honoring the legacy of the jumps and their impact on our town.
