Our mission is to advocate for, create, and maintain mountain biking opportunities and leadership in Chittenden County, Vermont. We are a passionate and ambitious organization that relies on a collective group effort to accomplish our goals and make our activities successful.

So, what would mountain biking in Chittenden County look like without the efforts of Fellowship of the Wheel? In a word, "minimal". Most of the singletrack in the area would not exist without the dedicated constant efforts of FOTW.

The next time you swing your leg anxiously over your bike to ride one of these trails, remind yourself that folks spend their precious free hours to make this possible for you. Your involvment is critical to our continued success. Join the Fellowship today, contribute, put your shoulder to the wheel, and please help make a difference. Enjoy the trails!

What exactly has this group accomplished? Take a look at some of the trails built and maintained by FOTW:

• Mud Pond Loop in Williston
• Lake Iroquois Connector - slated for reopening later this season
• Mobbs Hill Americana Trail
• Mobbs Valley Arcana Loop and Tarbox Trail
• Saxon Hill Flo Trail and the new MoFlo Trail
• Hinesburg Town Forest 18+ miles of new singletrack added over the last few seasons
• Sleepy Hollow - Various trails built and maintained by FOTW
• Carse Land - 1,000 acres of land contiguous to the HTF, trails currently under construction
• Two of the famous Waterbury Trails were designed and built by FOTW

Saxon Hill Trail Day, May 9th: MoJo comes back down

The Fellowship's latest effort at Saxon Hill was extremely successful with another solid turnout of 21 volunteers. Thanks to all who came out for the fun; it was great to see some new faces in amongst the regulars! Three trail crews were established to better accomplish the work and set off with clear missions for the day's project.

Sleepy Hollow Trail Day, April 26th: Impressive new trail completed

The Fellowship came out to Sleepy Hollow on Sunday April 26th and laid down another fine example of flowy, sustainable singletrack. A motivated group of 22 volunteers practiced the finer points of trail benching, berming, and technical feature building. The result is a nice extension of Tatooine, a trail previously constructed by FOTW members. This new section will link into a couple other classic trails and has been included in a marked loop around Sleepy Hollow's finest singletrack.

Saxon Hill Trail Day, April 4th: MoJo reaches the top

The 2009 season got off to a great start with 25 eager trail builders tackling some challenging terrain at Saxon Hill. We made lots of valuable improvements to last year's new trail, MoJo, that now winds its way all the way to the top of the hill. Care was taken to be sure this impressive trail will ride equally well in both directions.

Trail Coordinators Brooke and Mickey led smaller groups to the most involved work areas. Trail Technicians Ross and Jade were also on hand to lead by example. Look for opportunities to help build the second half of this great trail later in the summer.
