"All of the stress just comes off of you and right there during that time you are just yourself, enjoying life and enjoying each other in nature."
Great article from USA Today on the 'Nature Gap' for Black youth. We could not agree more on the social and emotional benefits from being outside. We hope our Trail Ride program can help close the 'Nature Gap' and get more Black youth outside! #tripsforkidsmarin #naturegap #trailride #mtb #nature

As we shift today with Daylight Savings, make sure to use lights on your bike if you ride when it is dark.
To make sure you ride as safely as possible, check out this article from Outside Online - "What You Need to Know About Bike Lights". It does a great job of breaking down how many lights you need and where to place them on your bike! #bikelights #biking #nightride Did you hear?! Miles for Smiles is ON! Running from October 15th to November 15th, Miles for Smiles is a virtual Bike-A-Thon supporting Trips for Kids Marin's youth programming.
Now your weekend or daily rides can help provide transformational cycling experiences for underserved youth and create those big beaming smiles we strive for at Trips for Kids Marin. All you need to do is sign up to become a fundraiser. To learn more, donate, or register to ride follow this link. #MilesforSmilesTFKM #tripsforkidsmarin #morekidsonbikes Take a moment to pause and read this powerful article on Indigenous People's Day by Renee Hutchens that will make you stop and think about words we say and actions we take in the #mtb community.
"Decolonization is about reclaiming what was taken and honoring and breathing life back into our deep cultural traditions." #NotYourTribe #IndigenousPeoplesDay Do you have any experience with grant management, copywriting, or research?
