Learn about our Bike Ambassador program, launched in 2021.
Interest and involvement in mountain biking have continued to increase at Blackhawk. We have thousands of riders in our club, including those who join as Full and Limited members, and the nearly 1,000 members who join as Mountain Biking members. With the popularity of the sport we have learned that we can improve our membership experience by helping new members learn about the programs that we offer, how to navigate the trails, and the best times to ride to avoid crowds and lessons.
The "Bike Ambassador” program: Ambassadors (or "hosts") have become increasingly common at clubs and trails around the country, to improve member experience, answer questions about the programs and facilities, and promote safe riding.
What is a “Bike Ambassador?” A Bike Ambassador is someone who comes to the Club to interact with members, answer questions, promote safe riding, and simply be the face of the club. We have nearly 50 members who have volunteered to be Ambassadors since the program started in 2021.
How can I find the Bike Ambassador? The Bike Ambassadors can be found wearing a t-shirt that says "Bike Ambassador." They will spend time at each trailhead, and also riding the trails. If you see them, don't hesitate to ask them a question, or thank them for their time and talents.
