About Evergreen.
Washington's largest mountain bike organization, since 1989. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit powered by riders, for riders.
01 / Our Story
Built by riders.
For riders.
Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and the nation's largest statewide mountain bike association. Through ten Chapters, we serve thousands of riders across Washington β from the Olympic Peninsula to the Methow Valley to Spokane.
We were founded in 1989 by a small group of riders who wanted to make sure mountain biking had a future on Washington's public lands. Thirty-seven years later, we've built or maintain over 850 miles of trail, contribute 29,000 volunteer hours a year, and remain the primary trail-building, advocacy, and education voice for mountain biking in the state.
