Temperatures are finally starting to cool down. Here's a great way to enjoy those temperatures and have a creepy good time in downtown Texarkana.

The Texarkana, Texas Parks and Recreation Department and Texarkana Museum System have teamed up again for the bicycle tours downtown this fall.

There will be three different themed bicycle tours in October and early November.

  • October 14th – Historic Buildings
  • October 21st – Murder and Mayhem
  • October 28th – Murder and Mayhem

 The Murder and Mayhem tours will be like a ghost walk but will be able to expand to a greater distance being on bikes.

The tours are free for people that bring their own bikes. Otherwise, there is a $5 bike rental fee at the Museum of Regional History.  Each tour is limited to 10 people total per tour and only 5 bicycles will be available to rent.
