This is exactly what we had in mind. #uppermichigan #outdoor #Michigan #ev Looking forward to working with Bloom and hitting the dirt with Dust Moto
Bloom is happy to announce that Oregon-based electric dirt bike startup Dust Moto is joining our platform. Dust Moto is fueled by a vision to bridge the powersports industry to emerging mobility tech with the ultimate goal of connecting more people with the sport. Joining the Bloom platform represents a key growth moment for Dust Moto by leveraging Bloom’s partnership network in assembly, warehousing, and distribution. Dust Moto has been a pioneering disruptor of the $20bn American powersports industry by introducing an innovative and highly coveted electric dirt bike offering. Their investment in American manufacturing and craftsmanship is aligned with Bloom’s antifragile and sustainable mission to reshore the industry. Bloom’s platform creates a mission-critical network that closes the gap between growing demand for micromobility products and domestic supply chains. “From the start, Dust Moto has been committed to developing a best-in-class American assembly platform to fulfill our mission of becoming the #1 US dirt bike brand, globally. Bloom is leading the pack by building an amazing ecosystem that will allow us to achieve our goals, both near-term and at scale.” Colin Godby, Dust Moto CEO This collaboration also represents Michigan’s position as a gravitational center of the mobility industry. Dust Moto’s new Bloom membership provides access to a growing community of movement leaders. In addition to locating their manufacturing operations out of Newlab at Michigan Central , Dust Moto will be leveraging Shophouse Park in the Upper Peninsula to test, refine, and launch their Model_1 in late 2024.

If you've riden a mountain bike once or a thousand times, you've probably enjoyed it more because of Charlie's innovations. We shouldn't live in a world or a country where this is a norm, but we do, so think about pitching in so Charlie can have a more enjoyable ride.

Super excited for this new federal data, and even more excited by Michigan's collaboration with Jonas Crews and the experts at Heartland Forward to create a tool for communities to better understand, focus and grow their outdoor economy in ways that are authentic and sustainable. "This data shows how the outdoor industry continues to be a key area of growth and a path to bolster local economies, consistently creating jobs and supporting economic growth,” said Michigan Outdoor Recreation Industry Office Executive Director Brad Garmon. “Trends in key segments of the Michigan and national outdoor recreation economy reflect our ongoing strategy to build on core strengths, such as retail and access facilitation, while better connecting and growing areas such as durable goods manufacturing for the outdoor economy. We will continue working to diversify and improve the overall resilience of the outdoor industry in Michigan, and add more high-wage and high growth jobs, especially in underserved rural and urban communities.” With Glenn Stevens, Chris MacInnes, and the Michigan Economic Development Corporation
