I am a bicycle enthusiast who lives, works and commutes on my bike here in San Francisco. I also enjoy mountain biking on the weekends which necessitates me leaving the city each weekend. Both my children are involved and have grown to share my passion. An inner city urban mountain bike park will not only … Continue reading Support Letter #000172

Even though I am in Oakland, I would come check out this park. I feel that Bike Parks are very successful in cities where they exist and provide outdoor recreation for folks who don't want to drive themselves or their kids out of town, or who don't own cars at all.

I have been riding bikes all my life, and there is not a single place to safely ride. Bikes aren't even allowed at skate parks, the one safe haven for skateboarders. We've built jumps, only to have them torn down, and it would be great to have a safe place for anyone who enjoys riding … Continue reading Support Letter #000170

As a Bay Area cycling enthusiast who also enjoys every opportunity to spend time in the City, what a fantastic opportunity for the community, to transform an underutilized, perhaps neglected space into a much needed resource, feature and destination for cyclists of all ages!

We have organized cycling events in McLaren and Crocker-Amazon for the last 4 years. From my own experience watching the growth of our activities - as well as the tremendous growth in Youth soccer since the reconstruction of the fields - transforming an abandoned portion of McLaren into a multi-functioning bike park is little short … Continue reading Support Letter #000168

San Francisco desperately needs a proper outlet for responsible cyclists who love to ride on trails. Currently most of us are forced to pack up our bikes and drive out of town in order to ride. This is certainly not an environmentally friendly way to enjoy an activity that celebrates nature. Judging from the turnout … Continue reading Support Letter #000167

I live nearby to where this park is and it would be a great change from the gym and a positive way to bring new people to biking. Male 29. 94103. 3/15/2010 23:38:15

This is a great opportunity for san francisco, its residents and the surrounding communities to enjoy a potentially great facility such as this bike park. It would provide recreational and outdoor experiences that the city lacks for a great bike friendly city. Please support and make this happen for the healthy and prosperous future of … Continue reading Support Letter #000165

I am a San Francisco resident in support of a Bike Park in McLaren Park. For several years I lived three blocks north of the park and would regularly ride my mountain bike on both side of the main dividing road. It seemed like the best kept secret in San Francisco. I've since moved to … Continue reading Support Letter #000164

I live in the McLaren Park neighborhood. My kids and about five other kids from our block enjoy riding around in Crocker Park, but I'm sure they will soon get bored of the flat loop. McLaren Bike Park would help them to continue to lean and enjoy riding. Just as the new soccer fields in … Continue reading Support Letter #000163
