Founded in 1993, SMBA is the longest running, independent, non-profit junior mountain bike program in Colorado. For over 30 years, SMBA has introduced young riders to the exhilaration and adventure of mountain biking. Through daily riding challenges, epic singletrack, team camaraderie, and lots of time on the trail, riders learn the skills to master any trail, become stewards of the land, ambassadors of the sport, and develop a lifelong love of mountain biking.
