Kona Bicycle Company and IMBA will continue their program of awarding cash grants to fund the development of freeriding, downhilling, and dirt jumping projects.
Thirteen US$1,000 awards will be available in support of the program's goal of speeding the development of freeriding opportunities on public land. Grants may be used for a variety of purposes, including gaining land manager approval, addressing liability concerns, construction of technically challenging trails, kiosks and signage, and developing organizations devoted to freeriding.
Funding for the program comes largely from the Buck-A-Bowl bowling tournament held annually in Las Vegas during the Interbike bicycle industry trade show.
IMBA-affiliated clubs in North America may apply until May 15. Grants will be awarded in June 1.
