Discover how the Verde Valley Cyclists Coalition built one of Arizona's most successful mountain bike trail networks in this episode featuring VVCC President Tracy Randall and board member Lars Romig. From Sedona's iconic red rock terrain to the emerging systems at Dead Horse and Blowout, learn how this advocacy group transformed contentious Forest Service relationships into productive partnerships that have created over 500 miles of mountain bike trails. Tracy and Lars share their journey from illegal trail building in the early 2000s to becoming a model for community-driven trail development, including their work on the highly anticipated Turkey Creek trail system.
Get actionable insights on building a thriving mountain bike community, from organizing trail work days that attract 50+ volunteers to establishing the Sedona Red Rock Trail Fund that secures funding for new construction and maintenance. Tracy and Lars reveal their strategies for working with land managers, incorporating technical trail features that keep riders engaged, and mobilizing their community to defend public lands against threats like the recent proposal to sell 3.3 million acres of federal land. Whether you're a trail advocate, mountain biker planning a Sedona trip, or community organizer, this episode offers a proven blueprint for trail advocacy success.
