Mountain Island Park Trails

03/23/2026

On Valentine's Day over 20 amazing volunteers of all ages came out to show their love for the trails! ❤️

We shot some video so you can see what they got up to building the new Skeleton Loop at Mountain Island Park.

This has some really unique features that are going to be amazing to ride.

If you see any volunteers working out on the trail, please give them a thank you. The appreciation goes a long way and motivates us to want to work on more projects!

Even better - become a member (link in bio) or chip in to a fundraiser (currently a sweet bike raffle!) to help us buy the tools and materials that keep our crews working.
🤘😎

After helping out ABP open up their new section of trail (go check it out) I was able to finish the last new feature at MIPT (see attached).

Watch out for the soon to be announced workday at MIPT to put the finishing touches on the new SR1. Hoping to have it open by the end of month or the start of February.
