Instagram post 2152479014715180093_654281474 Bye Bye Bollards 😢 After another incredibly successful summer, the Snow King Ave. bike lane bollards will be coming down next week for the winter. Snow King saw a record number of cyclists with over 30,000 bike trips in JULY ALONE, or about 1,000 trips a day. That's a lot less cars on our crazy busy roads. Thanks to all of you who chose to bike rather than drive this summer!

Instagram post 2145983862693886439_654281474 Heads up Snow King bike commuters. Work on the new Parks & Rec building is requiring some excavation within the road. Starting on Friday 10/4 (pausing over the weekend) until Saturday 10/12 expect the eastbound (south side of the road) bike lane to be closed. Cyclists will be directed in the vehicle travel lane in the construction zone. The sidewalk on the south side will also be closed in this area.

Instagram post 2144603070143017317_654281474 With the current weather cycle, just a friendly reminder about when and when not to use the trails. Quick version: hardpack is good, frozen is good… mud is BAD! Just because you can ride or hike doesn’t mean you should. If you’re leaving ruts please turn around. Long version: Our trails generally hold up well to rain since they are very compressed from high usage and also because of the thousands of drainage features our trail crew has installed and clean out each year. Because of this, our rule of thumb is after it rains if the roads in town have dried out the trails are usually good to go. But that comes with some caveats! Look at is the total rainfall, usually 0.3 inches of rain in a 24 hour period is what the trails can handle before they get saturated. So if it rains hard 3 days in a row the trails might be muddy for a bit longer. When you throw cold temps into the mix things get tricky. Freeze thaw cycles mean trails tend to be good/frozen in the morning, followed by a thaw period where the top layer of dirt gets really slimy, and by the afternoon they tend to dry out and be at a good tacky consistency. So… use your own judgement and be aware of your impact on the trail. Take the time to look behind you and see what type of tracks you are leaving and think of the poor trail workers who have to fix those footprints, hoof prints, and tire ruts.

Instagram post 2136556915328813418_654281474 Big news coming out of our local national parks today. E-bikes are now allowed everywhere traditional bicycles are allowed in Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Glacier. E-bikes are also allowed on the pathways of the National Elk Refuge that connect to Grand Teton National Park. Similar to traditional bicycles, e-bikes are not allowed in designated wilderness, in areas managed as wilderness, or on oversnow roads in the winter. More info at https://go.nps.gov/1y1zux

Instagram post 2135842588640747111_654281474 Cold temps didn't keep hundreds of local kids from choosing to bike and walk to school today! We had a blast handing out stickers, fruit and bike pins to everyone who chose to commute sustainably for iWalk, iBike, iBus to School Day. We'll see everyone at Wilson Elementary tomorrow morning! Educator Joanne Cook definitely won the best-dressed prize for her bicycle dress!
