Some parks offer easy trails for beginner riders and others have huge jumps and scary technical downhill sections. In this video, Blake Samson is out in Bentonville to show you what to expect when you get to a bike park and how to master some awesome skills!

    Does Bentonville put out any information about the cost/benefit information to their community. I would love to get something like this near me, but think communities need to know what they gain from investing in bikes.
