NWA Emerging Leaders, in partnership with the City of Rogers Parks Department placed 25 new bicycles on the Rogers Trail System for free, public use on the trails. Andrea Brinton, Assistant Director of the Rogers Parks Department is enthusiastic about the partnership and says the new bikes will “bring more opportunities and access to families and individuals to utilize the trail system.”
The bicycles are located at the Horsebarn Trailhead and the Blossom Way Trailhead and are used by the public on the honor system. The new bicycles are cruiser style and are a mixture of men’s, women’s and junior’s bikes.
“NWA Emerging Leaders is excited to provide this resource for the community and promote usage of the trail system. The partnerships that have been formed with the City of Rogers Parks Department and the Race for the Spike bicycle race provide support and sustainability for the Community Bike Program,” stated Andrew Curry, NWA Emerging Leader Greenway and Trails volunteer.
The Community Bike Program is funded by the Race for the Spike bicycle race held every August in conjunction with the Rogers Frisco Festival.
