Thanks SWIMBA for supporting our event!!

 

A quick recognition to SWIMBA  (The Southwest Idaho Mountain Biking Association). For those that don’t know much about SWIMBA, SWIMBA was formed in 1992 to promote the responsible, shared-use of trails, maintain and grow the trail system in the Boise front, and encourage the purchase of open space and trail easements to expand the trails system. Over the last 19 years, SWIMBA has accomp…lished those goals and taken mountain biking advocacy to the next level. As part of their advocacy, they have graciously volunteered their time to come out and “manicure” the course to make it rideable and clean so we are not all getting cut up by the ingrown foliage around the trails. The Les Bois Tri is thankful for their support and look forward to future trail building!! Thanks again SWIMBA! If you get a chance, head over to their facebook page and support them by “liking” their page. Support those who support us!! www.swimba.org
