I moved here from New York City in fall 2012, and one of the things on my Vermont bucket list was to learn how to ride a mountain bike. It was literally a combination of being terrified — the intimidation factor was real — and excitement. I felt like a little kid.

Indigenous people and communities are alive and well today in Vermont, yet many in our local communities are unaware of their existence, history and contributions, our relationship to the land we reside on, and where we recreate.

Witnessing the sheer ubiquity of mountain bikers whipping through the singletrack, powering through muddy back roads, getting tricky on pump tracks or bombing down snow-free ski resort trails, it might be easy to forget that, just 30 years ago, these knobby-tired riders were considered persona non grata at a lot of places now embracing the sport.

If we haven’t already met, I’d like to introduce you to your local land conservation organization: Stowe Land Trust.
IMBA launched its Rules of the Trail in 1988 to educate mountain bikers and serve as a pro-bike advocacy tool, and these guidelines for trail behavior are now recognized around the world.

Biking a harrowing run of singletrack can be exhilarating, but some people just prefer a casual walk, a flat run or a place to push the baby jogger.

There’s a certain sense of hard-won pride in pain when it comes to many mountain bikers, where the pedal pushing slog up a long, winding climb is seen as the price one must pay to be able to experience the exhilaration of the downhill.
Stowe Trails Partnership manages three distinct trail pods: Cady Hill Forest, Adams Camp and Sterling Forest, in addition to several connector trails, including Alex’s Trail in Dumont Meadow. Many of the trails are situated on lands permanently protected under conservation easements held by the Stowe Land Trust and owned by the town of Stowe and Trapp Family Lodge.

I love riding bikes. I have always felt that way. Each time I get out on a ride, it im-proves the joy in my day and makes me feel more connected to my mind, body and soul.
