This looks great. Let’s please build this!
Gilroy City Council, Select Contracts proposal for an Adventure Park in Gilroy will be a
positive project in the region for people that bike, hike, and enjoy the outdoors. It will provide
a benefit to our local community and attract tourism to the city. “The inclusion of a full-scale
lift accessed downhill bike park within day-trip of the Bay area and weekend trip distance for
much of the central California coastline is totally unique and compelling as its own offering,”
said Select Contracts in their proposal. The park would be an amazing resource for local high
school mountain bike teams, mountain bike enthusiasts, new riders, hikers, and those who
enjoy emerging trends in recreation. There is not another project like this in the region. Gilroy
is a Bicycle Friendly Community, and the Adventure Park supports the 2018 Tourism in the
Hecker Pass Corridor Resolution, and the 2020 Recreation Destination Community
Resolution. We are actively embracing, advancing ideas, and projects that promote the
concept of free-range people in the City of Gilroy. Thank you for your time.
