Help re-build and maintain one of the best urban mountain bike parks in the country, the I-5 Colonnade!! The colonnade is only 2 miles from campus in the Eastlake neighborhood offers trails and features for mountain bikers of all skill levels. UWild and Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance have partnered to help keep this amazing resource open and accessible to the Seattle mountain biking community. Please join us in giving back to the trails we all enjoy. We will be bringing bikes for folks to try and offering instructions on mountain biking from 3 - 5pm, then stick around from 5 - 7pm to help work on the trails. You will learn why and how mountain bike trails are built, help build and maintain features, and we’ll all have a blast while we work together to support our trail systems! We will be offering work parties on the second and last Friday of each month.
