Trail Advocacy
Mountain biking is what you want it to be. It can be a peaceful ride through the woods or a hair raising decent down your favorite line. For those with a little extra courage, this might mean putting some air between the ground and your tires at the local bike park. No matter how you choose to ride, we support the riders. We are your advocate to local governing bodies, municipalities, and organizations.
Joining CAMBr shows your support of the local trail systems and makes you an advocate.

Sustainable Trail Development
We build mountain biking trails to last. Trail development isnt about building trails for the current season. Our hope is to build trails that will only get better over time. We also build trails that allow for simple maintenance and upkeep. Each system is made up of volunteers and CAMBr members who dedicate their time to building and maintaining a sustainable trail network.
Joining CAMBr shows you care about the future of our trails.
Responsible Cycling
We build the trails so that mountain bikers can help remain responsible stewards of our natural resources. Our trail systems are built with the help and guidance of local municipalities and organizations. We work with the land managers to create trails that work with the natural habitat in ways that dont detract from the natural beauty or disrupt the environment. We also promote general bike safety and encourage safe, responsible cycling practices.
Joining CAMBr shows your respect for the trails and the sport of mountain biking.
