That happened several years ago. SDMBA beat the drums for support, a bunch of us locals attended meetings and wrote letters. It’s a done deal now. Master Plan including a bike park is approved. Construction starts next year.

I was all over leading the charge to get people to sign that petition and sign up for the survey.


Good. So then I don’t understand your comment at all.

*I know, I know…I’ve done my best to stick to some traditional fictions on DT, like we don’t all have real names, and Facebook and other social media don’t exist. Oh well. I abandoned the first a while back, there goes the second one.

Special Promotion of $30. Normally $60. Uh-huh.. I'd be very surprised if they move the price up to $60 and keep it there. I mean, how many would go more than once?

I will definitely go for a trial during the promotion, but even at $30, I'll be opting for Vail Lake and a bit longer drive thereafter.

I hope they'll come out with an annual pass at a reasonable price, and also a big discounted pass if you don't utilize the shuttle vans.

I am going to do my best to check them out at the $30 price point and then I can make an educated decision as to whether or not anything above $30/day is worth it for this park.

Today’s update from their FB page:

“September 2nd is the day! To make up for the delayed opening, we are putting on a Labor Day festival all weekend with small contests, including a whip-off.(Sept 2-4)

Reservations available online at no extra cost to participate in the fest. More details to come!

(Quietly operating this weekend to test operations ahead of the festival. Walk-ins ok, buy tickets in the bike shop)“
