Ride Ready: Training for Bike Patrollers and Hosts

The NSP Bike Program provides training for patrollers and hosts, preparing them to meet the needs of the growing year-round outdoor recreation industry. As ski areas expand their summer offerings, the program ensures participants are ready to support lift-accessed bike parks, urban parks, open spaces, and other managed lands.
