New Wooden Features Added to Morningside Park

Double Roller - 2 ft. high, 36 in. wide

With a grant from Roanoke Outside Foundation and in cooperation with the City of Roanoke Parks and Recreation, BROC has installed three super fun wooden features on the loop trail at Roanoke’s Morningside Park.

The new features are designed to help mountain bike riders of all abilities improve their skill levels and have fun on a beautiful wooded loop of single-track trails located in the heart of the city and accessible to the Roanoke River Greenway and the Mill Mountain Trails. They are the only features of this type in the region and are adjacent to the Boys and Girls Club of South West Virginia.

A-Frame - 2 ft. high, 12 in. width

The purchase of these three new wooden features, manufactured by American Ramp Company, was made possible through a grant from Roanoke Outside Foundation and with the cooperation of Roanoke City Park and Recreation. Volunteers from the Blue Ridge Off-Road Cyclists (BROC) sited and assembled the structures.

Rolling Byway - 24 in. width

The addition of these wooden features is the second phase of a mountain bike skills area being planned and developed by BROC at Morningside Park in cooperation with the City of Roanoke Parks and Recreation. The Mountain Bike Capital of the East keeps getting better.
