Standing with the Welsh Mountain biking community 🚵♀️ At Beicio Cymru, we are proud to be part of a collaborative effort to address the significant impact of recent cuts by Natural Resources Wales (NRW) on the mountain biking sector. These changes threaten not just a vital part of our outdoor culture, but also the local economy, tourism, and our community’s connection to nature. In response, we have joined forces with over 90 other organisations, co-signing a letter to the Welsh Government, urging for action and a balanced approach to safeguarding our natural trails. Key partners in this initiative include Beicio Cymru, Cycling UK, the UK MTB Trail Alliance, Mountain Bike Wales, and the Wales Adventure Tourism Organisation (WATO). Together, we aim to ensure the future of mountain biking in Wales remains strong and sustainable.
