The Pueblo of Picuris will complete the final phase of the All-Wheel Park with a bike park that includes progressive jump lines, technical skills features, and drop zones. This bike park phase will provide amenities suitable for BMX bikes and mountain bikes. The bike park will take advantage of the area to the north of the existing pump track and trampoline zone. This area is sloped terrain which will provide an enhanced user experience for the design/build of a bike park. The bike park will incorporate skills features with a steel-framework. This will ensure the long-term success of all skills features, and establish Picuris Pueblo's All-Wheel Park as a destination for Tribal members and visitors.
