The Harold Richey Memorial Bicycle Bridge, named after county commissioner Harold M. Richey and dedicated to him in 1987, is popular with families and cyclists, especially on weekends. The bridge does not allow cars, with rules on the bridge deck that outline right-of-way guidelines for pedestrians, equestrians, and cyclists.

Little tip-outs on both sides to safely pull over & take pics; the north side (upriver) is deep & boaters fish there. the south side faces down river & the myriad of rapids there.

This bridge is one of many along the Jedediah Smith Memorial Bike Trail; a 32 mile, 2 lane multi-use paved path (bikes, peds, equestrian) that runs twix Discovery Park & Granite Bay. IT IS IN ESSENCE OUR BIKE SUPERHIGHWAY..... No Vehicles Allowed.

the Jededia is patrolled by red-shirted volunteers, Sac Sheriff & Rangers. there's also Emergency Call Boxes all along it & water spigots too (but only a few! 🤣😆)
