A Letter from John Burke about IMBA

I need your help. The International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) is facing the biggest policy battle they have taken on in their 21-year history—an effort to increase opportunities for cycling in our National Parks. I need your help to make sure IMBA wins this fight.

National Parks represent the most treasured, iconic places in America, and IMBA stands ready to help build and open trails in these epic, breathtaking lands. From a policy perspective, our National Parks set the bar; it's therefore critical that they embrace mountain biking, as their policies shape those of state, county, and city parks. 

We only have until Feb. 18 (a week from Wednesday) to submit comments in support of this policy change, and five national organizations have waged an all-out battle to defeat this proposed rule. I know many of you have already written in support of IMBA, but we need your employees, your customers, and your riding buddies to weigh in as well. This is big.

What am I asking you to do?
