MWTA receives a portion of sales of Breaking Wheel so please drink up and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing you are helping to build, share and protect inspiring trail experiences.

    COME RAISE HELL WITH US!   Cerberus is also hosting MWTA for Raise Hell for a Reason, if you join us on 11/16 between 4-7pm, a dollar from every beer sold supports our org, which supports more trails.

    We will have MWTA board members and volunteers on hand to answer your questions about trail projects in the region, as well as specific IndyGive! incentives.
