IMBA and CLIF Bar are currently accepting applications for the IMBA/CLIF Bar Trail Preservation Grants. These grants support projects that preserve and enhance trail access, promote environmental education and inspire conservation in the mountain bicycling community.
Ten US$500 grants will be awarded to IMBA-affiliated clubs that meet the project criteria. The application deadline is September 1, 2009.
"Small grants like this are often the catalyst that can spark a much larger project and fundraising effort. The CLIF Bar program has inspired dozens of sustainably designed trails all over the country," said IMBA Development Director, Rich Cook.
Sue George is an editor at Cyclingnews. She coordinates all of the site's mountain bike race coverage and assists with the road, 'cross and track coverage.
