Encyclopedia : R : RA : RAY : Ray's MTB Indoor Park


Ray's MTB Indoor Park is located in Cleveland, Ohio, USA and is the world's first multi-terrain indoor bike park. It opened in the second half of 2005 and is in its first season. It is proposed that it only stay open during the colder half of the year. Whereas indoor skate parks have existed for skateboarding and BMX, and there are examples of indoor dirt jumps, this is the first facility that aims to provide a whole spectrum of mountain bike terrain and disciplines. It is aimed both to improve skills and introduce riders to new disciplines in a safer environment as well as providing riding facilites during the winter. It is unique in that different riding styles are found in proximity to each other. Its initial success has attracted interest from the industry with companies keen to sponsor new areas and events. Having proven to the industy that this format works, it may act as a template by which other examples may follow around the world.
