Cranberry hosts bicycle safety ‘rodeo’
Cranberry Township’s Bike Rodeo will help educate the public on bike safety Saturday, June 24 at the township’s Community Park.
The event runs 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is presented by the Cranberry Township Police Department and EMS — with help from the Cranberry Elks, AAA East Central, Dick’s Sporting Goods and Trek Bicycle.
Via a series of stations, officers and volunteers from Trek Cycling will perform free bike inspections and helmet fittings. Staff will teach hand signals to be used while riding, as well as provide additional safety tips. Participants will then test their skills on the obstacle course, which will feature educational stops along the way.
This free event will also feature giveaways, refreshments, raffles and more.
Registration is not required. For more information, contact Sgt. William Ahlgren, community relations, at 724-776-5180 ext. 1423.
