Bike skills park in Blackfalds gets new name

Blackfalds residents and bike skills enthusiasts can now visit the Parallax Energy Bike Skills Park.

The name change comes after Parallax bought out Vesta Energy in December 2024. The park used was originally named the Vesta Energy Bike Skills Park.

“As a local oil and gas producer with operations in the greater Red Deer area, Parallax Energy is thrilled to partner with the town of Blackfalds to support one of the top municipal bike parks in Alberta,” shared Thomas Everett, Manager of Surface Land and Stakeholder Relations, Parallax.

“The Parallax Energy Bike Skills Park offers biking options for all ages and skill levels and that is what we love about it. A real community space to bring people together, encouraging physical exercise while allowing bike skill development on a top-tier track.”
