MADL Bike Library
The Muskegon Area District Library and Muskegon County Bicycling Coalition proudly announce the Muskegon Area Bike Library will open on Monday, June 2. This free lending program offers bikes in various sizes for MADL or Hackley Public Library card holders, ranging from children's bikes with training wheels to adult street bikes.
Patrons must bring their library card to the Muskegon Heights branch of MAADL. Minors require a guardian. After watching a bike safety video and signing a waiver, patrons will be assisted in finding an appropriately sized bike, which comes with a helmet and lock. Bikes check out for the entire summer, due back in October. Children's bikes can be switched for larger sizes as needed.
