NIMBA is an all volunteer group that builds and maintains mountain bike trails in Southern Michigan and Northern Indiana. The goal of the race series is to raise much needed revenue for trail improvements. This revenue is used trail signage, structures like bridges and boardwalks, and tools to maintain the trails. NIMBA members volunteer about 400 hours a year to keep the local trails open and safe.
