About the project

Upplands Ekeby IF wants to buy new MTB bikes, to get more people out into nature. Through this investment, more people will have the opportunity to try MTB cycling, but also create a greater community around the other activities that the association has to offer. More people will have the chance to discover beautiful natural areas around Alunda, create new experiences and friends.  

By showing how beautiful nature is, greater added value is also created around nature, which leads to lessons about behaving carefully and responsibly when you are in it. 

Through youth leaders who teach how to ride a mountain bike properly, how to behave in a group and show consideration for other people in nature, the association contributes to positive social development.
