Giving Back

Greg from Straitline has been building at a place close to their factory for a couple of years. With the help of friends they have been able to build a pretty cool place for the local kids to go and ride.

Progressing left to right the jumps get more difficult. Essentially they have built a park that anyone from a beginner to a pro can ride. Or a park that a beginner can progress to pro level.

Everyone knows Greg by name and has at least one Straitline sticker on their bike. The day I was there he was filming a local rider to post on the parks blog. Community involvement is what makes projects like this one succeed.

So get involved in your local bike club, help with trail building and ride your bike.

Keep Riding,
