// Our Mission
Boulder Mountain Bike Patrol (BMBP) is a volunteer mountain bike organization dedicated to promoting responsible riding and trail use on our public lands, providing a service to all trail users, and participating in this mission by riding our bikes. Our patrollers ride select trails and provide simple, helpful services (give directions to trail users, help with minor mountain bike repairs), then report patrol activity via an easy web form after their rides.
BMBP provides service to three different land management agencies by riding trails throughout Boulder County, including: West Magnolia; Marshall Mesa; Hall, Heil Valley, and Walker Ranches; Betasso Preserve; Rabbit Mountain. If you already ride these areas regularly, consider joining BMBP - you can chalk up your rides as “volunteer time”. If you want to ride more, BMBP provides a great way to branch
out! All speeds and skill levels are welcome.
The mission of the Boulder Mountain Bike Patrol (BMBP) boils down to the 3 P’s:
- promoting responsible riding and trail use on our public lands
- providing a service to all trail users
- participating in this mission by riding our bikes
// What is patrolling?
When you join BMBP, you agree to volunteer a few hours a year as a bike patroller. While on patrol, you ride select trails and take time to interact with fellow trail users. You ‘patrol’ by providing simple, helpful services:
- handing out maps
- helping with minor bicycle repairs
- providing first aid assistance(with proper training)
- educating fellow riders on the Rules of the Trail
Bike patrolling is only about educating and helping others enforcement is left to the professionals, the rangers who manage our public lands. Your bike skills or riding speed are not important only your love of riding.
Beginners and experts are welcome!
