The Future of Mountain Biking in Issaquah

In case you didn’t know, last fall the City of Issaquah formed a committee to study opportunities for expanding the opportunities somewhat inspired by the success of Duthie Hill  (http://www.ci.issaquah.wa.us/News.asp?NewsID=1822).  This new group, called the Issaquah Mountain Biking Task Force (IMBTF), includes both City Council and Park Board members, along with citizens who represent a broad range of interests, from cycling to environmental protection.

We have an opportunity to help and contribute to the future of mountain biking within Issaquah with an eye toward regional connections.

The topic of the April IMBTF Meeting is ‘Legitimizing a Mountain Bike Park through the City Permitting & Public Participation Process’. Featured guest speaker will be Carloyn Hope, the Senior Parks Planner for the City of Redmond, who will share her experiences with the development of a mountain bike park in Redmond, WA (http://www.redmondbikepark.com/HOME.html, video on project: http://rctv.redmond.gov/ondemand/efocus0910bikepark.wmv).

This is your opportunity for show your support  o

The meeting is April 25^th at 5:00 PM in the Issaquah Trails House, 110 Bush St, Issaquah near the community center.
