Only 10 days in and Trail Karma Month has already raised over US $57K! To spice things up a bit, we are also adding two new prizes to the mix: a RockShox ZEB Ultimate and DT Swiss EX 1700 SPLINE. Read on for prize details and learn more about what Trail Karma Month is all about...


More so than before, trail associations are spread thin as trail maintenance increases and access to resources decreases. Due to COVID-19, funding is being cut, while more and more people are outside using the trails. There is a large gap between current funding and what is required to build and maintain the trails that bring us so much joy. Which got us thinking...

For the month of July, we’re giving you more reason to give back to the trails you love to enjoy with Trail Karma Month. Trail Karma Month is a campaign to raise awareness and increase funding for trail associations around the world.

We are encouraging everyone around the world to support their favourite trails by donating via Trail Karma in July. Trail Karma provides a direct way for you to put 100% of your donation into trail associations and builders developing trail systems.

Donate to a trail association(s) of your choice between July 1st - 31st. 2020 for a chance to win one of our incredible prizes listed below.

 How does the trail Karma work for people that actually do trail work. I don’t give money to trail associations because my local hill is all on private land and is maintained by riders. I do 100’s of hrs a year with my own tools because I enjoy it.
If I paid myself $1/hr I figure I have donated over $2,000 in recent years. Can I get a gold star?

 Gold star for you Yaan! Thank you for your work!

 Would some fake internet points make you feel better?

 Form an association with your fellow riders so you can receive funding for more tools and supplies. If it grows you now have a proven organization that can help work with other land owners or local gov'ts for new trail locations. Isn't that how a lot of these organizations start? Its certainly something I love about the mtb community!

 I do trailwork and nobody thanks me. Probably because I built a jump in a XC park lmao

 Feel smug when you look at the strava heatmap. Is that not enough or you only feel better when others see you being rewarded? Wink

 @number-6: Seeing a Strava heatmap makes me cringe, it means the Ejoeys have found your trail.

 The people who win these Salomon running packs, could they please share pictures of themselves wearing these whilst riding bikes? Maybe take a tumble or two to see how it goes?

 I bloody love this, makes it easy to donate to the trails I ride and with the bonus I might win something it is just the incentive I needed to actually stop being lazy and do it. Thanks to the Canterbury boys and girls for building and maintaining the awesome Vic Park trails year on year.

 They beg the donation from all over the world, then spent it on the very limited region/ county.

 Where do the Trail Karma go?
Seems like Karma for building trails is more underground?
