2008 IMBA/USAC Trail Tune up grant

Seven $500 USA Cycling/IMBA Trail Tune-Up Grants are available to mountain biking groups seeking to jump-start trail improvement projects.

Projects that create or improve trails used for mountain bike racing will receive the highest consideration, but funding can also be used to improve trails for race training and recreational riding. Applicants must be current members of IMBA, as well as USA Cycling member clubs/race promoters.

Trail Tune-Up Grants are completely funded by USA Cycling members through an optional land access checkbox on USA Cycling license applications and renewal forms. The program is administered through a partnership between USA Cycling and IMBA.

The application deadline is September 1, 2008. Grant winners will be announced in September at the Interbike trade show.

  • A one-page, typed description of the proposed project that demonstrate how funds will be productively used to preserve and enhance trail access, promote environmental education and inspire conservation in your community.
  • A budget outline to show how all funding will be used.
