Trail One Components: Thank You Yet Again!

Trail One Components has made another Trail Treasury donation to BTCEB to support our trail stewardship efforts.  This $1000 donation increases the total of their donations to BTCEB to $6000 since they started their Trail Treasury program.  The Trail Treasury program supports a variety of trail systems and stewardship organizations — small and large — around the world.  Consider Trail One Components the next time you replace or upgrade your bars, grips, stem, or other components.

Trail One Components describe the program best on their website:

“Why Crockett?” you might ask. Trail One’s handlebars are the Crockett Carbon and Crockett Alloy handlebars.  Brian Kennedy, one of the founders of Trail One Components, began mountain biking with his Uncle Dennis, and Crockett Hills was where they rode early on, before much of the current trail system was there.  That rare relationship with “pain and pleasure” — well, at least with pain, perhaps — was nurtured here.  And thus “the Crockett Hills” and BTCEB’s trail stewardship efforts are thankful for Brian’s origin story and the generosity of both Brian and Trail One Components.  Thank you, Brian, for starting this donation program and thank you, Trail One Components, for continuing your support of BTCEB and other trail stewardship organizations and volunteers across the world.  

BTCEB has used these donations to keep our tools stocked, buy a bike trailer to haul tools to our work sites, and provide lunch for volunteers on trail work days.  That support has helped provide a means to slowly increase our Crockett Hills volunteer hours each year.  We logged our all-time high of 708 volunteer hours in 2025 and have averaged over 500 hours per year since we began tracking them in 2018.
