New American River Bike Patrol initiative information session

Shriner’s Hospital, 6:30pm, no cover

The American River Parkway is getting some new eyes in the form of a patrol that will watch over the bike trails on the parkway. The initiative was unanimously approved by Sacramento County supervisors and is recruiting members from the American River bike community who will be trained by the National Ski Patrol. The 85 miles of American River Parkway trails will be watched by the patrol starting in early summer and they will provide directions, equipment assistance, safety insights and bike safety programs. For more information on this new initiative, attend the open information session this Thursday. 2425 Stockton Blvd., regionalparks.saccounty.net.
