Our Legacy

For over 30 years, MedWheel has partnered with land management agencies to plan, build, and maintain mountain biking and multi-use trails.

Mission

We are mountain bikers who build, share and protect inspiring trail experiences.

Vision

To create a world class network of mountain bike trails in the Pikes Peak Region

Values

Stewardship, Conservation, and Community in Colorado Springs

Recreation

We build and protect sustainable trails that inspire, heal, and connect people with the outdoors. Trails are a vital part of Colorado Springs public lands, and we work to ensure they are designed, built, and maintained to the highest standards for mountain biking and multi-use recreation.

Collaboration

Great trails are built through strong partnerships. We work side by side with land managers, elected officials, outdoor recreation groups, and community organizations to expand trail access and improve Colorado’s trail network. Collaboration makes more trails possible and strengthens stewardship across the Front Range.

Conservation

Healthy trails depend on healthy landscapes. We integrate conservation into every trail project, protecting wildlife, water resources, and open space in the Pikes Peak region. By preserving nature, we ensure future generations can experience the restorative power of outdoor trails.

Inclusivity

Everyone deserves access to trails and the outdoors. We actively remove barriers so that people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities can enjoy the benefits of mountain biking, hiking, and nature. Inclusivity drives our trail advocacy, volunteer programs, and community engagement.

Integrity

We build and protect sustainable trails that inspire, heal, and connect people with the outdoors. Trails are a vital part of Colorado Springs public lands, and we work to ensure they are designed, built, and maintained to the highest standards for mountain biking and multi-use recreation.

Bicycling

We champion mountain biking and safe cycling access. From supporting bike-friendly infrastructure that connects riders to trailheads, to working with partner organizations across Colorado, we promote bicycling as a sustainable, healthy, and joyful way to experience the outdoors.
