This is an event for the whole family and is a fund raiser benefiting the FWMBA. FWMBA works closely with the city of Ft. Worth, Streams and Valleys, and the Trinity River Visions group in order to bring mountain bike trails to our city. FWMBA has logged MORE volunteer man hours of labor than ANY OTHER club or association in Ft. Worth. This Fall, FWMBA will break ground at Gateway park to bring an additional 5 miles of new trails that will provide over 250 ft. of elevation gain. With your help, we will be able to increase our club membership numbers, volunteer numbers, and be able to buy all the tools required to undertake this massive trail building project! SO, come out and join us for this super fun Mountain Bikers&#8217; party and help make a difference!!! &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/www.planobicycle.org\/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=349:collin-classic-pba-rest-stop&amp;catid=41:latest&amp;Itemid=148\" href=\"http:\/\/www.planobicycle.org\/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=349:collin-classic-pba-rest-stop&amp;catid=41:latest&amp;Itemid=148\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Collin Classic PBA Rest Stop (More pictures)<\/strong><\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.planobicycle.org\/images\/uploads\/article_photos\/0site.jpg?resize=512%2C384\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" \/><br \/>\nSign seen at the rest stop: &#8220;Howdy, welcome to Climax; now git!&#8221;\u00c2\u00a0 And they did, all the way to the finish! &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/cycledallas.blogspot.com\" href=\"http:\/\/cycledallas.blogspot.com\/2011\/06\/build-your-own-bike-lanes-anywhere-you.html\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>For the real cost of one mile of bike lane, 13,000 cyclists could be educated to make it redundant. <\/strong><\/span><\/a><br \/>\nfrom Cycle Smart Dallas<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cyclingsavvy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/threepics.jpg?resize=384%2C760\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"760\" \/><br \/>\nCreate your own bike lanes&#8230; anywhere you want.<br \/>\nOf course, they&#8217;re going to be about 11 feet wide.
