Sugarbottom Subaru IMBA Trail Care Crew Visit

Submitted by Eric Penne/Community contributor

The International Mountain Bicycling Association is coming to Iowa. Steve and Morgan Lommele of the Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew will be in Iowa City for a Trailbuilding School with ICORR. The Crews teach “sustainable” trail building, which means building trails that last a long time and require minimal maintenance. This helps reduce trail damage, protects the environment, and enhances visitor enjoyment.

Please register for Saturday's Trailbuilding School online. For more information, please contact Jim Yoon.

Thanks to on-going sponsorship from Subaru of America, the Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew program is crankin' again in 2010. Two teams of trail experts will travel year-round throughout North America and beyond, leading trailwork sessions, meeting with land managers, and working with IMBA-affiliated clubs and members to improve mountain biking opportunities.
