Community and local authorities in El Paso have taken a collaborative approach to enhance safety for young cyclists. The effort involved educating children on bike safety and ensuring that their gear was properly fitted. Sergeant Javier Reyes from the El Paso Police Department emphasized the aim: "We are trying to educate the young kids on bike safety as well as what type of safety equipment they need to be wearing while riding."

Before allowing children to use the track, experts helped ensure the safety of the bicycles. This included helmet adjustments and checking tire pressure and chain conditions. Adrian Yanez, owner of the Border Bicycle shop, was among those conducting safety inspections. Yanez highlighted the risks associated with poorly maintained bicycles: "Obviously if you have a bike that has something wrong with it can be dangerous, it can be a hazard, and can cause a crash."

After completing inspections, the children were able to practice on a track. They were taught important safety skills such as proper braking, stopping at red lights, being aware of others on the road, and safety near railroad tracks.

Judge Najera expressed satisfaction with the community's engagement in promoting safety: "I’m extremely humbled because I wouldn’t have done it by myself," she said. "I’m humbled that we as a community are out here (because of) the importance of teaching our kids."

The event, referred to as the El Paso Bike Rodeo, emphasized the importance of community cooperation in ensuring the safety of young cyclists.
