Bicycling Merit Badge/ Advancement Requirement





What started out as a 5 mile bike ride along the Jordan River trail, turned into a full 10 mile ride! Part of the bicycling meritbadge is to do a few 10 mile rides - however, each scout must document the trip... We have encouraged each boy to write about what they experienced and the route they took so they can get the credit when the discuss this with the MB councilor.


Hat's off to Dallas for having gone the whole way on his BMX bike! He had no problems keeping up, in fact, we often had a hard time keeping up with him!


We will let the boys post their report on the blog to better document our trip. There will be more bike trips to come. I think with a little more preparation, these guys will be able to do a 20+ miler with no problem.
