The unsung heroes of the Sugar Land mountain bike community are the volunteers who spend several hours a week to keep the trails safe and maintained.
"It does take a bit of recruiting and public awareness to get volunteers to come out," said Sugar Land resident Jason Wipf. "We've created a large network so that at any given time we have help."

"This is the closest thing we have to mountains here in Houston so we make the most of it," said volunteer Trey Jung.
