Where Your Support Goes
Your entry does more than just give you a shot at a new ride—it puts professional builders, tools, and resources on the ground. This year, sweepstakes entries are fueling three major initiatives:
MTB Trail Improvements: SCMTS recently wrapped up six weeks of major work on the legendary Braille Trail in Soquel Demonstration State Forest. Funds from this sweepstakes will allow the crew to select another advanced, MTB-focused trail for a similar top-to-bottom overhaul next year.
The Felton Pump Track: We are in the home stretch of bringing a world-class pump track to the San Lorenzo Valley! SCMTS is currently about $50K away from the fundraising goal. Every entry helps cross the finish line to build this community hub for riders of all ages.
Year-Round Trail Access: From the coastal bluffs of Cotoni-Coast Dairies to the redwoods of Wilder Ranch and Pogonip, your support fuels the "invisible" work—clearing downed trees, seasonal brushing, and tread repair—that keeps our local networks safe and rideable year-round.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Ibis Cycles to give back to the community that works so hard to keep our trails running,” said the SCMTS team. “Between the progress in the Soquel Demo Forest and the upcoming Felton Pump Track, there’s a lot to be excited about right now. Plus, we have a few more bike-focused projects under wraps that we can’t wait to share soon.”
Don’t miss your chance to support the trails you love and upgrade your garage. The chance to win ends April 28 at 11:59 PM PT.
