About Us

Creating and maintaining sustainable world-class trails responsibly and collectively since 2010.

Vision

We believe trails are a gateway to adventure, health, and connection with nature. Our vision is to make VKBC a model for sustainable trails, community-driven stewardship, and strong partnerships—right here in the heart of Miami.

Mission

Our mission is to build and maintain exceptional trails that inspire riders of all ages and abilities to explore, grow, and connect—physically, mentally, and socially—through outdoor recreation.

We believe everyone deserves access to world-class trails and a welcoming community. Our work creates spaces where unforgettable experiences and lasting memories unfold, surrounded by nature and the spirit of Virginia Key.

History

What started as a simple idea shared at a city planning meeting became a movement fueled by passion, sweat, and community spirit. With a promise to build and maintain the trails ourselves, a small group of mountain bikers helped transform Virginia Key into a one-of-a-kind riding destination. The full story is a testament to what’s possible when people come together for a shared purpose.
