FAQs

What kind of bike do I need for the bike park?
Almost any kind of bike designed to ride on dirt trails will work. These include: downhill mountain bike, cross country mountain bike, pump track bike, or BMX bike. Ideally, your bike should have the ability to lower the seat, either with a wrench or seat dropper, so that it doesn’t interfere with riding while you’re maneuvering. For little kids, a strider bike works great! Bikes we do not recommend: gravel bike, road bike, street cruiser. 

Can I ride an ebike? 
Yes, a Class 1 ebike is allowed, Class 2 or 3 are not allowed. 

Are one-wheel’s, electric unicycles, mountain boards, off-road skateboards or electric long-boards allowed?
No, just bikes. Note that we will allow modified bikes for persons with disabilities.
