WHO WE ARE

A few riders who wanted a better way….

Years later, Front Range Mountain Biking is now a multi-national, 24,000+ member group of dedicated mountain bikers. Two Facebook groups, always closed and moderated, turned into an advocacy juggernaut, media source, meet up point, website and blog reaching up to 80,000 to 120,000 riders as a whole.

FRONT RANGE MOUNTAIN BIKING, BY THE NUMBERS

• We are over 24,000 members, which is huge considering we are private, sport specific, and have never been “open status” groups. We are averaging 600 new members a month, this does not include the declined member applications. We average 5,000 posts, 94,000 comments and 175,000 reactions per year.

• No one takes a salary from Front Range Mountain Biking.

• We are known for activity (over 90% active members per month), inclusion, responsibility and charity. This is notably different from the other mountain bike groups and likely responsible for our growth and the respect we receive from the overall mountain bike rider, media and charity communities.
