AMBA – Building community as well as trails

AMBA (Albuquerque Mountain Bike Association) is a volunteer, non-profit mountain bike advocacy organization  and a  local IMBA (International Mountain Bike Association) chapter.  In addition to their love of mountain biking, members join AMBA for a variety of reasons including trail building, organizing community rides and races, and giving back to the sport.  Albuquerque’s amazing trails are due in large part to the members of AMBA donating their time & resources to build and maintain our trail system.  We wholeheartedly support AMBA and encourage you to do the same.  What ever your passion, joining AMBA is a great way to connected with a terrific mountain biking community.  For more information click on this link.
