The Dirt

Fall Membership Drive is Underway- Join by Oct. 31st and win a Yeti!

 

Our Fall Membership Drive is underway and we need you now more than ever!

If you ride a bike off road in Metro Atlanta, you need to  join MTB Atlanta.

Join or renew today at https://www.imba.com/join/chapter/210548

Choose annual auto renew so you can keep your membership current and we will enter you in a local give away for a $100 REI Gift Card!

MTB Atlanta has worked to build and maintain 30 miles of mountain bike trails in Metro Atlanta and has 60 miles of new trail in development.  We are actively working to increase access for our sport and for trails for Outdoor Recreation as well as pump tracks and bike park facilities in Metro Atlanta. All of this takes funding and financial participation from the mountain bike community as a whole. We have an all volunteer Board that is looking to increase capacity as an organization. Simply stated, we are great at building and maintaining sustainable trails, but we need you to help us build a sustainable organization to support our work and our trails in Metro Atlanta.

This is why we need you to join or renew today.  Your membership provides us with the funds to build and maintain trails. Your membership makes a difference when we meet with land managers to gain or preserve access. As we have seen with the developments at Big Creek Park in Roswell, we cannot take our trails for granted. It takes an organization to keep trails open and to advocate for new trail access.  Land managers in Metro Atlanta, from the National Park Service on down to your local municipality have no budget to build or maintain trails. Your participation is essential to keep the quality riding you love available.

MTB Atlanta has four active trail builds starting this Fall/Winter at Southside Park, Sykes Park, South Rockdale Park, and Chattahoochee Bend State Park. We have opened new trail access in places like Carroll and Coweta Counties and the cities of East Point, Carrollton, College Park and Newnan. This access has the promise of delivering a regional ride center for all Metro Atlantans to enjoy.

Join or renew with MTB Atlanta in October and you’re entered to win a Yeti Cycles SB5 or SB5 Beti C-Series GX kit, plus a $2,000 JensonUSA shopping spree, a Western Spirit cycling trip for two and a BikeFlights shipping voucher for two. For 30 years, MTB Atlanta has helped create and maintain more trails close to home in Metro Atlanta. Your voice and your support matter!

Thank you for being an important part of the Metro Atlanta mountain biking community and we will see you out on the trails!
