Mountain Bike Patrol
First organized in 2000, the Lawrence Mountainbike Patrol is a community service extension of the Lawrence Mountainbike Club. The distinctive red jerseys emblazoned with a large white cross identify the patrollers.
Modeled after the National Ski Patrol, the mountainbike patrollers
are ambassadors, not enforcers. The patrollers are charged with
providing help and first-aid for injured trail users, assistance with
bike repairs, and information about bike and trail safety. The
mountainbike patrol is authorized by the
City of Lawrence Parks and
Rec. Department, and each patroller is trained in C.P.R. and
emergency first aid.
Each patroller is also a member of the
National Mountainbike Patrol,
an outreach of the International Mountainbike Association,
of which LMBC is an affiliate club.
