Bike Rodeo

Thanks for joining our 2025 Bike Rodeo! See you next year!

Pack 1344 hosts an annual Bike Rodeo each spring in the Cherry Run neighborhood. Cub Scouts and all children and families in the community are invited to attend.

Participants ride around the neighborhood at their own pace stopping at different homes where obstacle courses are chalked on the pavement. Participants test their skills on these challenging obstacles.
