Petition to Allow BMX Bicycles into Public Skateparks
We, the undersigned, support the use of BMX bicycles in skateparks. This petition is not a request for a new, separate skatepark designed specifically for BMX bicycles. It asks for equal treatment for BMX riders in an existing skatepark.
It is a common misconception that BMX bicycles in skateparks create a dangerous environment. BMX bicycles are equipped with brakes and are highly maneuverable, making them at least as safe as the skateboards and/or inline skates already permitted to use the skatepark. Many cities around the country already recognize this by permitting BMX bicycles into publicly funded skateparks, where they coexist with other skatepark users. Countless private skateparks already demonstrate that any and all skatepark designs are compatible with BMX bicycles.
For all of the above reasons and more, we, the undersigned, recognize the need for equal treatment for BMX riders, that they may have a safe and legal area to enjoy their sport.

Please let the BMX bikes in now! Nothing at all against skating and blading, but BMX bikes were somehow missed and deserve to be part of the park mix.

BMX'ers and skateboards coexist without problems in hundreds of parks in the US. Other countries allow BMX in all public parks without problems. Bikes should be allowed in all parks.
