Our community
cOMMUNITY voice
Wellington is a vibrant MTB community. We have many recognised public MTB groups focused on their thing - think Brooklyn Trail Builders, Revolve, Makara Peak Supporters, Wellington Mt Bike Club etc. These passionate MTB groups are filled with many, many great people and all doing great things. But it's fair to say, there are probably even more people in our riding community who don't yet belong to one of our recognised public MTB groups.
TW works to unify and present the voices of our whole MTB community, to act as a powerful collective voice for the good of us all. We want to support and grow our community. Our vision is Wellington, a City of Trails.
We advocate on behalf of our MTB community with the City Council to get more areas opened up to trails, new trails built and existing trails maintained alongside environment plantings and trappings. In a nut shell, to get the Council to increase its priority and spend on developing and supporting MTB in our city.
We also raise money through your membership fees, business partnerships and working with generous patrons. We use this money to pay to have trails designed and built by trail experts.
But it all begins with you, with us, our community.
