Maintaining existing trails and building new ones should be done as a group effort, on land where it is legal for you to do so. Why not find out if your local trail centre has volunteering days?

Mountain biking as a sport would really struggle without well-maintained trails and new trails being built. Once you know that you're good to go ahead and maintain the trails, or build some new ones, here are our top things to look out for.
