I am writing to you due to the fact that I believe Orinda, Moraga and Lafayette should have a local bike park in Briones Regional Park. Not only can a bike park create a community for local mountain bikers in Lamorinda, but also it can put more children off their screens and on their bikes.
Bike parks like Valmont in Boulder, Colorado, are home to little 6-year-olds learning to ride bikes alongside Red Bull athletes practicing their flips. A bike park in Briones could completely transform mountain bikers in our community and bring us together with a shared interest.
I am a local Boy Scout from Troop 219 here in Lafayette and am also a bike park enthusiast!
