Get Your Bike Road-Ready at Let’s Ride! Eastmark on Sunday, November 15
Fall has finally arrived in Arizona! The cooler temps make for perfect bicycling weather. All you need is a bit of a tune up. Some air in the tires, grease in the gears and maybe a new helmet and you will be ready to go. Pack up your wheels – your cruiser, skateboard, road or mountain bike and bring it to Eastmark Sunday, November 15 for a free Bike Rodeo.
Banner Children’s will be on hand providing helmet fittings and teach adults and kids the rules of road in an interactive bike rodeo (to participate you must bring bike and wear helmet). Eastmark also partnered with the City of Mesa Bike and Pedestrian Program and Valley Metro to offer expert tips so you can stay safe on the roads. Soul Cruiser, the Tempe shop that built Eastmark’s famous Orange Cruiser, will perform free bike maintenance checks to help get your wheels ready to go.
For those who don’t have bike helmets (a must for safe riding) or need other bike gear, some local bike shops will have gear for sale.
Let’s Ride! Eastmark will feature favorite local food trucks with great treats to buy and lots of giveaways for participants. Stay for the high-energy BMX Impact show where trained BMX racers will show off their skills in The Eastmark Great Park for visitors.
This event is free and open to the public.
