YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – Join the City of Yuma and other municipalities across the Desert Southwest and Mexico as they come together for a family-friendly event.
The 9th Mayors’ International Bike Ride will take place on Saturday, October 25th.
This event, founded by City of Yuma Mayor Doug Nicholls and leaders from 4FrontED, aims to unite the different communities in our area and highlight our region.
The ride will begin at the Yuma Civic Center and will include stops at Cocopah Korner, Somerton City Hall, Friendship Park in Gadsden, and Montezuma Park in San Luis.
The ride will conclude with a celebration at Benito Juarez Park near San Luis Rio Colorado’s City Hall.
Mayor Nicholls shares why is it important that people take part of this bike ride and we he hopes they take away from it.
“Life is more about working together,” said Nicholls. “We have more things in common than we do apart, so that’s that’s important, but also very much promoting our regions.”
Bicyclists of all ages and levels are welcome. Participants under 18 must have a parent/guardian accompany them on the ride. The ride is free to attend.
You can register to participate on the City of Yuma website HERE.
The ride will begin at 8 a.m.
