Koko-go Free Ride
Located along the Industrial Heritage Trail, behind the cities free bike rental program, Koko-go Free Ride just got a fresh look. Along the trail, leaders of industry are and were once located, giving Muck Rock the perfect opportunity to spice up some concrete pillars once used for the railroad system that once ran through the area.

Muck Rock was also commissioned to create works of art on the garages of homes in Kokomo. Spicing up the alleyways of neighborhoods all over town.
