The afterglow of NEMBAfest, powered by Pedro’s, continues to shine, and with the announcement of next year's date —June 16-18, 2017— riders are already planning next summer's vacation and those that are camping-averse are now booking their accommodations. By all accounts, this year's event was off-the-chart amazing. Clear skies continued through the entire weekend. Pre-registration was up 40% from last year and the total ridership over the three days was a record 5,800. The smile meter was pegged at 11. The expo area was packed with over 80 bike industry vendors, and riders took advantage of demoing the latest bikes on our dedicated demo loop sponsored by the Outdoor Gear Exchange. After the fest, one rider posted on Facebook "We were thinking of updating our kitchen. That changed when we went to NEMBAfest. We both replaced our 20 year MTBs with new ones." This is music to the ears of people like Derek Griggs of Pivot who had a record number of bikes demo'ed that weekend. The vibe over the entire weekend was joyful and chill. Everyone wore a smile —hard not to after riding such great trails! But what makes this festival unique is the number of families and kids that come and celebrate mountain biking and father's day weekend. "It's a really healthy and safe atmosphere" says NEMBA's Philip Keyes. "There's a sense of freedom one gets from mountain biking and you can see it in the kids' eyes as they rip around the kids riding zone or bomb around the expo, and you can tell that the moms and dads are stoked that their kids are sharing their own passion. It’s a beautiful thing." The fest had something for everyone. The morning yoga and after- noon stretching were popular. The woman's skills clinics put on by Mountain Bike Skills Training were well attended. Mike Stedley put on two incredibly talented stunt shows, and Jeff Lenosky (coming off of an injury) put on some mountain bike shenanigans for riders of all ages. And then, of course, there were the rides: fatbike rides, night rides, 'intermellow' rides, epic rides, ladies rides, family rides. So many rides, so little time! By the late afternoon, everyone seemed tired, but happy, and in need of a nice cold beer at the beer garden. There were two live bands both Friday and Saturday, and true to form, The CopOuts pulled out all the stops and got the crowd hopping with their Irish punk Saturday night. But while one might think the campground would be rowdy with so many campers, by 11pm all was quiet and everyone was packing it in so they could rest up and ride the next day. “Mountain bikers are a good group,” commented a local policeman, “they like to have a good time but they also want to be in good shape to ride the next day.” Putting on the NEMBAfest is a huge undertaking, and couldn’t be done without not only the partnership between Kingdom Trails and NEMBA, but also hundreds of volunteers. Riders appreciate th3 fact that people are giving of themselves in order to put on a quality event and you can feel the passion for mountain biking coming from every- one in the community. As industry veteran, Seth Brosnan, commented, "I wanted to reach out once again and thank you for the opportunity NEMBA gave to Cannondale last weekend. I am humbled and impressed by the sheer magnitude of such a spectacular event. This was the most impactful thing I have ever been a part of in 18 years. My team and I were blown away by the hospitality, professionalism and sheer kindness that was shown by all to all at NEMBAFest. I wish we could do it again this weekend!"

  • Mbosc Scoping Comments
    8/2/2019 To the BLM Central Coast Field Office, I am writing today to give comments on public access at Cotoni-Coast Dairies (CCD) on behalf of Mountain Bikers of Santa Cruz (MBOSC), we are a non-profit trail stewardship organization local to Santa Cruz County. We represent 2700 members and have an active volunteer base of nearly 1000. First off I want to thank BLM staff for the manner in which you have approached this planning effort. It gives me great comfort to see public servants moving through a contentious planning process with such respect and objectivity. You have provided a very comfortable and safe forum for a wide ranging diversity of the public to give feedback and be heard. Thank you. Santa Cruz County has nearly 220 miles of official singletrack trails. Of those only 40 miles are open to mountain bikes. Mountain biking has emerged as a popular mainstream sport, and Santa Cruz is world renowned as a mountain bike destination. This is a hub for the bike industry with such notable brands as Santa Cruz Bicycles, Ibis Cycles, Giro, Bell, and Fox calling the county home. This has put a lot of pressure on the few miles of legally accessible mountain bike trails. Our local land managers here in the county have been slow to respond to the demand for mountain bike access which has led to issues around unofficial trail use and user conflict. We have a great opportunity at CCD to turn this trend around and effectively manage mountain biking through intelligent trail planning, including mountain bike oriented and specific trails, which the BLM is a leader on in other regions.
