New Little Rock Cycling Pass Goes Live

LITTLE ROCK, Ark (September 19, 2022) - The Little Rock Convention & Visitors Bureau (LRCVB) has launched its newest mobile-exclusive pass highlighting the capital city’s top cycling attractions, the Little Rock Pedal Pass. This follows the May 2022 launch of their first pass, the Little Rock Attractions Pass.

The pass, through the technology company Bandwango, is a FREE program that anyone can sign up for. With more than 50 of Central Arkansas’s cycling trails and routes included within the passport-like format, it showcases the best of Little Rock cycling in an easy, mobile-friendly way.

“We’re excited to continue building upon our Little Rock Pass program,” said LRCVB President & CEO Gina Gemberling. “With the growth in interest in cycling at all levels and the addition of new cycling experience opportunities in Little Rock and central Arkansas, we hope that the Little Rock Pedal Pass further encourages people to get outside and explore Little Rock on two wheels,” she added.

The Little Rock Pedal Pass encourages residents and visitors to make the most out of their cycling experience in Little Rock. Whether they are looking for a casual, family-friendly ride, tour of the city, road, gravel or mountain biking, there is something for everyone in the Little Rock Pedal Pass!
