The Motor City Mountain Biking Association chapter of the International Mountain Biking Association is a section 501(c)(3) non-profit advocacy organization focused on preserving, protecting, and promoting mountain bike access and diverse riding opportunities on public lands in Metropolitan Detroit through education, communication, and unified action. Each year, our active membership contributes over 2,500 hours of service developing and maintaining trails in state, county, township, and city parks. The Bureau of Labor calculates volunteer time at an hourly rate of $20.13, which means that the MCMBA annually contributes over $50,000 in direct labor to our communities. We host events to raise funds used for purchasing tools and equipment for our volunteers, and providing materials for bridges, kiosks, signs, and other capital improvements for our parks. Our chapter works with partner organizations to maintain approximately 80 miles of singletrack mountain bike trails in Oakland and Wayne counties. In addition, we pursue development opportunities for new trail systems in several communities. The Motor City Mountain Biking Association is a member of the Michigan Mountain Biking Association, a federation of mountain biking clubs focused on state-wide advocacy issues.
