Spring equinox feels like a good time to update on Trail Pot activity; the outdoors is waking up, there’s new growth everywhere and everything feels just that little bit more fresh.
And so it goes with the Trail Pot; the outdoors industry is waking up to the opportunity, there’s new growth and as we look into 2025 we’re feeling pretty fresh and excited about the way things are going.
The past few months have been business behind the scenes. We’ve been building relationships, talking with people in the industry and strengthening our approach.
Money has been coming in – thank you to each and every one who has donated – and that money is being put to good use already with a tiny amount being spent on a few business cards and flyers to get the great name of the Trail Pot out there a little bit more.
And out there we have been, with a recent trip to the excellent ReframingMTB event down in Bristol where Trail Pot was able to make its voice heard on the future of mountain biking, as we mixed with influential and dedicated people from around the UK’s mountain biking community. A really great, energising event which gives real hope for the future of MTB.
So the future.
We’re talking with a lot of companies now. It’s been great to open this kind of dialogue and we’re looking forward to seeing where it goes. We’re in this for the long term – remember we’re aiming to change the way money is raised in the MTB world; a move away from collection tins and GoFundMes. That means the short term chase for a set total isn’t what it’s about. We’re here for the long term, establishing a robust, strategic model to build some strong foundations into the heart of mountain biking.
And we’ll get there.
We’re in pot filling mode right now, so if you can help with us building relationships, or if you yourself want to play a part, get in touch.
Let’s change grassroots mountain biking, together.
