About

MORC is dedicated to safeguarding the future of mountain biking in Minnesota through the promotion of responsible riding, establishment and maintenance of mountain biking trails, and preservation of Minnesota's natural resources.

MORC works with local government agencies and land managers to build and maintain environmentally sound and properly built mountain bike trails, sticking as closely to International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) guidelines as possible.
