Fillmore Bike Park is now\u00a0officially\u00a0open and available to ride. Thousand Oaks included bike park facilities\u00a0in their recently approved plans for Sapwi Trails Community Park. \u00a0Kernville has a bike park and BMX track.\u00a0These\u00a0are the result of dedicated mountain bikers showing up to meetings and asking for them, then following through to make it happen.<\/p>\n<p>Our neighboring IMBA Chapters in Orange, San Diego and Riverside Counties are all working on bringing bike parks to their communities.\u00a0Now we&#8217;re ready to ask Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>In January, the Los Angeles Dirt Park Collective was formed. CORBA has joined\u00a0the Collective in their mission to bring pump tracks, dirt jumps, and bike parks to Los Angeles.\u00a0We know there&#8217;s demand, but at this stage we need to let the decision makers know just how great that demand is.<\/p>\n<p>How can you get involved? Right now we need a show of support. Follow the L.A.
