BECAUSE MOUNTAIN BIKING IS BETTER WITH TRAILS

From Ashland to Grants Pass, we live in a fantastic place with world class trails. Our goal is to protect and expand mountain biking opportunities in Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley.

RVMBA believes that trails are for everyone.

We’re committed to fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment that invites people of all backgrounds, abilities, and identities to explore, enjoy, and protect the trails of the Rogue Valley.

Our mission goes beyond building and maintaining trails; we’re also about building community. We’re dedicated to listening, learning, and taking meaningful steps to break down barriers to outdoor recreation and to ensure that all who share our trails feel a sense of belonging.

Whether you’re a climb-to-the-top-of-Mt A rider, a weekend warrior, or new to the world of mountain biking, RVMBA welcomes you to join us in celebrating our diverse community and the beautiful trails that connect us all.

Our highly anticipated project is finally taking shape! We've been hard at work planning, meeting, and connecting with all the key players. And the best part? We've secured a $117K grant from the Recreational Trail Program to help make this project a reality.

Combined with funds from our raffles and other resources, our total budget now stands at a whopping $150K. We hope to begin construction this spring! https://www.rvmba.org/mt-a-line

Our friends over at Siskiyou Upland Trails Association are hiring! -—— Trail Construction Crew Openings! SUTA needs 4-6 trail construction crew members to build several more miles of new trails. The project will begin in mid-November and go through approximately mid-February. Pay is $20.00/hr, possibly more for experienced crew members. We plan 4-day work weeks, approximately 8 hrs per day. This is challenging but very rewarding work. You can expect to hike several miles per day and move a lot of dirt! Your ‘office’ is the great outdoors. If you know of someone who might be interested, please have them contact us at mailto:sutaoregoncontact@gmail.com or call or text Joy at tel:5419740039 to discuss.

RVMBA is excited to share that construction on the Dollar Mountain Trail Project has officially begun in Grants Pass! For those who don’t know the details, there will be bike only downhill trails, as well as mixed use climbing/hiking trails as part of the 5 mile expansion! The system will be open to E-bikes as well! Construction is expected to last at least until the beginning of December, so hopefully we can expect some Velcro trails right off the bat!

🚨 ACTION NEEDED! 🚨 We've got great news! BLM is currently reviewing a draft plan to potentially include bike trails at Buck Prarie! The terrain lends itself to mellower more XC-style trails and the soil holds moisture for much longer than the trails in the valley. If that wasn't good enough, the elevation keeps the area cool while keeping out all the poison oak we all suffer through! This is an amazing opportunity for us riders but BLM needs to hear from us when reviewing the plan, or else they won't have any incentive to create new trails. Squeaky wheel gets the grease! Check the link in our bio to submit a comment. Remember, comments must be made by July 5th 2024! Please show your support for this venture to make the Rogue Valley an even better MTB destination! How to submit a comment: Online via the “participate now” feature in the webpage's left-hand column at the BLM National NEPA Register (follow our link in bio!)
