Bike-a-Palooza kicks off Go Spokes! program

Posted

PINEDALE – Bikes, trikes and everything in between sped around a blocked-off section of Tyler Avenue near the Sublette County Chamber of Commerce last Saturday as the new bike-share program – Go Spokes! – kicked off by celebrating with local community members.

Vendors lined the street, while various cones and other obstacles provided enjoyable riding for youngsters and adults. Children tested their skills during a series of cycle races, before Officer Ryan Day, of the Sublette County Sheriff’s Office (SCSO), gave a presentation on bike safety and the regulations in Pinedale. The SCSO provided free helmets and goodie bags for youngsters, while Rock Springs business, The Bike and Trike, gave bikes quick tune-ups.

Later in the afternoon, attendees participated in an obstacle course that weaved throughout the block, pushing riders to make tight turns, balance on beams and more.
