  • Nick Bennette – Executive Director for the Vermont Mountain Bike Association #121

    Nick Bennette – Executive Director for the Vermont Mountain Bike Association #121

    Nick is a dad, environmentalist, recovering consultant, and passionate mountain biker. He’s most happy out in the woods, popping off roots and rocks and searching for fun lines. Outside of work, Nick is either keeping up with his 9-year old or out on the trail, typically combining those things as much as possible. Once the weather turns,

    Nick tries to get in as much skiing and fat biking as he can, and his family has (mostly) converted him into a cozy-weather board gamer. Nick’s favorite thing about working for VMBA is the people. “Every single person in our organization is passionate about strengthening access and sustainable stewardship. It’s awesome to work so closely with Chapter leadership, partners, and volunteers rooted in that same passion.” Most importantly, favorite trail snack. There’s no one answer for Nick, regardless, he strongly prefers ‘real’ food and the default is to whip together a ‘mega sandwich’ – peanut butter, banana, honey, and chia seeds.

  • Dirt Sculpt Dave of DirtSculpt LLC – World Class Bike Park and Competition Event Builder #117

    Trail EAffect with Dirt Sculpt Dave of DirtSculpt LLC – World Class Bike Park and Competition Event Builder #117

    Dave King has over 15 years of experience and is acclaimed to be one of the world’s best bike park builders.

    As a kid I started building trails and jumps in my backyard. These early projects laid the foundation to go on and help build the world-renowned BMX trails, NAM and Catty Woods. Although NAM is long gone, Catty Woods still attracts riders from around the world. Bringing together like-minded individuals over the shared passion of cycling cemented my lifelong mission to construct facilities for other riders to enjoy. After providing years of unincorporated build services across the nation, I formally established DirtSculpt in 2009. Since then, it has been an amazing experience working with organizations, local governments, and corporations from around the world to cultivate cycling experiences for all to enjoy.

    The DirtSculpt Crew is comprised of professional riders that transcend multiple riding styles. I couldn’t be more stoked to have their input when designing and constructing a new build or redesign.

    Topics:

    • Building out Anthony Napolitan's Red Bull Dreamline 2011, in Wabasha, MN / Coffee Mill Ski Area
  • Helping out with Heroes of Dirt Movie made for the big screen
  • Going to Whistler Bike Park in 2005 to build out a dirt jump trail – Alongside Crankworx
  • Building Red Bull Dirt Conquers in Guadalajara Mexico – BMX Street Park made from dirt
  • Building the Red Bull Trail Loop for Mike Hucker
  • Red Bull TRA Double Cross BMX Race Course
  • Dirt vs Asphalt Pumptrack Conversation and the Evolution of Asphalt Pumptracks
    • Post Build maintenance on dirt pumptracks
  • Other alternative surfaces
  • Dave’s thoughts on Bentonville when he attended the 2022 PTBA Conference
