The Golden Spoke Ride returns this Saturday, May 14 to celebrate the joys of safely cycling along the longest, connected paved trail west of the Mississippi River (second longest in the United States). Two rides will start simultaneously at opposite ends of the trail at 8:00 a.m., with one starting at the High Adventure Park (251 W 18th Street) in Ogden, and the other in Riverside Park (1260 W 600 North) in Provo.

It’s shaping up to be a dangerous and deadly year for pedestrians and cyclists along the Wasatch Front. Since January, the Utah Highway Patrol has reported 28 fatalities. Seven happened in the past week.

Just weeks before, 4 cyclists were killed, spurring advocates to call for more action on bike-safe streets.

The Transportation and Land Use Connection (TLC) program supports planning projects that positively impact our region and implement the Wasatch Choice Vision.

In thinking ahead to May – National Bike Month – our map of the month features a new look at bicycle-based travel along the Wasatch Front.

City leaders in Clearfield broke ground Monday on a major project they hope will serve as a new community center that encourages more people to get around without driving.
