A quick thank you to the Coast Salish, Snoqualmie, and Tulalip tribes for mountain biking on your land today, Thanksgiving. I just learned about the Native Land app. What a great way to learn about our local Native American tribes and the history of the land we’re on. @ilikethe.bike

The MTB Equity Coach Coalition is pausing our fundraising efforts for the time being. We want to make sure that our impact is aligned with our intentions.

BIG NEWS! Fundraising for the MTB Equity Coach Coa

BIG NEWS! Fundraising for the MTB Equity Coach Coalition begins today! Sweetlines is so proud to be a founding member of this Coalition with the goal of helping to make mountain biking more inclusive! Coaches and organizations across the globe are fundraising to invite people who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to discover mountain biking. Each program is hoping to bring in at least 10 people who are BIPOC. Invitations will include tuition, bike demo, protective gear demo (helmet, gloves, and pads), transportation, and meals - everything needed to get out and have a great time. Sweetlines already did our fundraiser in the summer so please consider donating to one of the other great programs or to the Be Good Foundation! Every $10 counts!

Last night was our first Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion training for the MTB Equity Coach Coalition! We had 59 coaches from across the globe all learning about privilege, biases, microaggressions, and understanding how to make the outdoors safe and welcoming for black, indigenous, and people of color. #mtbequity Thanks to our coach @ironself18

Finn’s getting his hip jumps dialed, counter steering in the air to initiate the lean, then kicking out the back end to the side, and of course, head, heart, and hips looking where he wants to go next. It’s so much fun working with Finn and his dad! 😺🙌

“3, 2, 1, SLOW!” Slow racing is a great way to train our stationary balance. Where do we use stationary balance? Slow techy sections of trail, switchbacks, skinnies, and obstacles. 😺🤘 #dirtshredders #slowrace

We truly appreciate you! Thank you to everyone tha

We truly appreciate you! Thank you to everyone that has supported our Equity Scholarship fund so far. In doing so, you are giving the gifts of the outdoors and joy to children that may not have the opportunity otherwise.

We are inspired by you, our community. Your generosity and dedication to inclusion is helping us make progress toward our goal of making the world of mountain biking accessible to all. We have raised $11,862 so far!

We want to thank you all so much for helping us reach our goal! We have met and exceeded it, wow! Any money above and beyond the initial goal will be used to purchase safety gear for the scholarship campers to keep, to go toward community outreach, and education on anti-racism and equity within our MTB community.

To donate and learn more about the Equity Scholarship program, please visit sweetlines.com

Gorgeous trails! Did my longest mtb ride the other day on an e bike. Chrome Toilet to Alpine to ATCA; 35 miles, 5 hours, 5000’ of climbing. Even with e it was a ton of pedaling for me. #norcosightvlt

The last day of camps was a success! @dredtrail and @drewstuesse gave me a little heart attack with this move, but all in all a perfect end to the summer. I’m super proud of my staff for making our camps successful, especially during COVID! I’m not going to lie, the stress was high training 6 year olds to stay away from each other and keeping masks on everyone. My crew rocked it and kept the kiddos safe. I feel very fortunate to have amazing people working for me. Congrats to Drama for winning the Norco Rampage frame and for volunteering for 35 days. Congrats to Donald for being our Coach of the Year and @the_comet_427 for being the Mentor of the Year! I 💕my crew! We did it!
