Trail Builders: The unsung heros of mountain biking.

Thanks for that.. I think it will inspire others to become more involved.

Must feel good to make a trail every one loves, But used that chopper to get to the top then did not use it to film the decent.

To all of those who enjoy riding the trails we build, please, at least once, get involved in a trail day and put back into what you love riding the most. It makes an insane difference in the amount of work that can get done with a group of 10 compared to going solo to build.

How are they unsung heroes? All everyone on Pinkbike rattles on about is how godly builders are and that everyone who rides a trail that they didn't build should kiss the feet of the builders and then shoot themelves for being a scum.
