Thanks to Kona Bicycle Company’s generous support, seven IMBA clubs will receive $1,000 cash grants to help create new freeriding, downhilling and dirt jumping opportunities. IMBA received many applications for the 2006 Kona/IMBA Freeride Grants, and the field of applicants demonstrated an impressive level of sophistication. Each application featured detailed maps and budgets and evidence of good relationships with local land managers.
