Our Collective operates fundamentally on public grants. In order to get these grants, we need to provide 20% of any grant we ask for, in cash or kind, depending on the program.

Financial contributions of our 9 founding partners<\/a><\/span> allowed to launch our first project, and to hire a full-time project manager, whom has been instrumental in getting the Collective up and running.

Our mid-to-long term dream? Helping our trail centers grow, al for the benefit of mountain biking in our region!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
