This skatepark in Portland, OR said that they would allow bikes but it was another story when opening day rolled around, now people are being ticketed for riding there. I never really understood why a skatepark wouldn't allow bikes. In fact the only remotely good argument that I've ever was that metal pegs do more damage to concrete than any part of a skateboard. This is true, however would the city rather pay the to have the extra coping on the ledges and ramps, or would they rather pay the thousands upon thousands of dollars to up-keep their city when all the BMX riders are forced to ride street because they are booted out of the parks. Check out this article on TCU and do your part.
