Our Mission Statement: Advance the mountain biking community by promoting expert-level racing and expert-level trail advocacy.
Purpose of BTNP
BTNP exists to fill a critical gap within the mountain bike ecosystem. Many organizations successfully introduce new riders to cycling, while professional factory teams support elite athletes at the highest levels. There is limited infrastructure supporting riders and events in the progression stage between the two levels.
Our organization focuses on advancing that middle tier of the sport by:
Finacially supporting expert-level and grassroots racing opportunities
Advocating, funding, and maintaining black and double-black hand-built trails
Pushing progression
BTNP works with supporters, sponsors, and community partners who recognize the value of investing in the difficult.
