IMBA's National Mountain Bike Patrol Now in San Diego
As a Mountain Biker, you have long been a great steward of the land. Maybe you perform countless hours of trail work. Maybe you're active in advocacy and outreach. Maybe you're just spreading the good word about the trails that you love so much and want to share them with others. Now, there's another possibility to give back to the parks that we enjoy so much while helping out the cause of Mountain Biking! Join SDMBA's chapter of the National Mountain Bike Patrol.
The National Mountain Bike Patrol (NMBP) is a service organization dedicated to the providing assistance in the event of trail-side medical or mechanical emergencies, educating trail users about proper etiquette and helping keep land managers informed about trail conditions and use in the parks.
Your local chapter of IMBA, the San Diego Mountain Bike Association, has been very successful promoting multi-use trails in SD County because of its dedicated volunteers and members like you.
SDMBA is now in an ideal position with San Diego County land managers to promote new projects like these:
Mountain bike skills progression parks
Request and build new connective single track multi-use trails
Hold more social riding events and skills clinics
Rewrite the county’s trail guidelines- dirt roads are not trails!
What does this mean for you, the avid volunteer, the concerned mountain biker, or the occasional rider who wishes to help out?
