THANK YOU NV IMBA MEMBERS
I’d really like to thank all of you who are IMBA members, NMBPatrollers, IMBA Dealers and IMBA clubs. Year in and year out, many of you have been long time IMBA supporters. It not easy to part from your hard earned dollar, and many of you also fit in hours of labor and advocacy into your tight schedules. You don’t often get a pat on the back or acknowledgment, but your membership matters. We definitely can say there are more mountain biking opportunities now than in the past. IMBA has made a difference at the highest levels, which means a lot in Nevada which has so much federal land. Thank you for being part of organization that gets its strength and support from you—its members.

YOUR ANNUAL TRAIL PASS
Consider your annual IMBA donation, not just a season pass—but an annual pass to trails, literally around the world. Can you think of a better deal? Its says you want to support and to be counted as a mountain bike trail user. As this last presidential election has shown, numbers, partnerships and supporters really make a difference. IMBA’s worldwide membership has been hanging around 32,000 members since y2k, as has Nevada’s IMBA membership of around 200. Since then Nevada’s population has grown almost an additional 250,000 persons. At an estimated 41 million off-road cycling enthusiasts nation wide, we sure could use more representation. Numbers matter, and you need to be counted as a mountain biker. No
single organization has done more to make more trail opportunities for you. More than that, it’s a network of cycling friends, enjoying their passion for trails and travel.
