FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Fort Collins city leaders are working to decide the future of the site of the former Hughes Stadium.

Several cycling organizations, including the Overland Mountain Bike Association and the Wolfpack kids biking group, have been advocating for the construction of a “world class bike park." They have collectively spoken out at city council meetings and submitted official survey responses in support. “It’s really a place where anybody that wants to just spend some time outside can come and have a good time,” said park advocate Taylor Calmus. “A bike park is all about inclusiveness. Doesn’t matter how good you are, doesn’t matter how old you are there.”

John McDonagh, a member of the Sierra Club Poudre Canyon, says he supports the idea of a bike park in Fort Collins, just not at the former Hughes site.
