In 2005 the Hoosier Mountain Bike Association (HMBA) was awarded a $150k RTP Grant for Brown County State Park. The HMBA Trail Fund was started in 2006 to provide the funds needed to cash flow the RTP project. HMBA’s success with the RTP grant lead to a $250k State Trail Grant. The RTP and State Trail Grants allowed HMBA to combine volunteer and professional trail builders and resulted in the following trails.

Brown County State Park's mountain bike trails have been crowned as "among the best in North America" in Bike Magazine's March issue.
In its article "33 Best Rides in North America" the international magazine says the following about the trails, which are located on the outskirts of Nashville, Ind.
"This expanding trail system is quickly becoming a favorite destination for Midwest riders . its 19 miles of singletrack is among the most varied terrain east of the Mississippi. From berms to steep switchbacks to tight trees to rock gardens, these trails have it all. And even more are on the way, with an ambitious expansion plan already in the works."
The trails also were honored as runner-up in the Best Trail Network category by the magazine. Kingdom Trails in East Burke, Vt., won the category, and Park City, Utah, joined Brown County State Park in receiving a runner-up award.
According to the article, "Nominations came in from the four corners of the continent, and the 11 trails we selected-along with two runners-up per category-offer some of the best mountain biking on the planet."

As many of you know, we currently have new trail construction underway at Versailles State Park, O'Bannon Woods State Park, Harmonie State Park, Southwestway Park, Ampetherater Park in Lafayette, Fort Harrison State Park and we are still building trails at Brown County State Park. The impact of the trails we are building is greater than just providing us with more trails to ride. One benefit that is being noticed is the economic impact mountain bike trails are having to local economies. The town of Nashville is seeing more mountain bikers spending money at local shops. Meanwhile, the French Lick Resort has hired professional trail builder, Alex Stewart, to build mountain bike trails on the resort property. Having a private company spend real money to build a world class mountain bike trail in Indiana shows how far mountain biking has come in our state.
Your membership fee helps, but more importantly, there is strength in numbers. The total membership of HMBA is used by government officials to compare the demand for mountain bike trails vs. other user groups.
