Bike rodeo happening Sept. 9 at Mills Park in Carson City
Muscle Powered in partnership with Western Nevada Safe Routes to School are hosting a bike rodeo on Saturday Sept. 9, 2023. In years past, Muscle Powered has hosted bike rodeos and we are excited to re-strengthen our partnership with Western Nevada Safe Routes to School to bring back events that teaches kids about bike safety.
In 2022, Mayor Lori Bagwell began a 'Move with the Mayor' campaign, a national movement to encourage active and healthy communities. As part of this event, Carson City Mayor Lori Bagwell will be handing out helmets and talking about the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
Activities begin at 9 a.m. and run through 12 noon at Mills Park. The event is being sponsored by Carson City Public Works and the Carson City Parks Foundation.
Carson City BMX, The Bike Smith, Skiing is Believing, The Carson City Sherriff's and Fire Department will be there along with Kona Ice and the food truck Sliders (@Sliders Food Truck on Instagram). Join us for a skate party hosted by Carson City Wheel House, food and learning how to safely ride your bike and basic riding techniques!
Muscle Powered is seeking 5 volunteers to assist with the event and tabling. If you are interested, contact Chelsea at ckincheloe@musclepowered.org.
