Visit Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park for Bike Your Park Day on September 28

A global initiative to celebrate bicycling in parks and public lands.

If you’ve ever wanted to explore the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park on two wheels, now’s your chance. The National Aviation Heritage Area is inviting the public to join a Bike Your Park Day ride on September 28, 2019 – a worldwide event that encourages people to explore parks and public lands by bicycle on the same day.

Riders can visit the only remaining building of the Wright Brothers’ bicycle business. The Wright Cycle Co. building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1990.

In the past three years, over 35,000 people in all 50 states and over a dozen countries participated in Bike Your Park Day. Adventure Cycling Association, a nonprofit bicycling organization, coordinates the event.

You can register your own ride or for an existing ride at BikeYourParkDay.org. Everyone who registers by September 22 will receive a Bike Your Park Day sticker and will be entered in a sweepstakes for a chance to win an REI touring bicycle.
