The
dream of creating Western Australia's first long-distance off-road cycling
trail took shape through the efforts dedicated volunteers and visionary
government and community representatives. The Munda Biddi Trail Foundation is a
not-for-profit organisation that was formed to assist the Department of
Conservation and Land Management and other land managers get the trail project
off the ground, and it continues to be involved in trail development and
planning.

Today the Foundation
represents the community that will use the trail. It is a "friends of the
trail" group that enlists paid memberships while also tending to the business
of fundraising, sponsorship, and community liaison. The Foundation is
responsible for raising community awareness of the trail, promoting its use by
residents and visitors, and planning and participating in special trail events.
It's the primary role of the organisation to get cyclists using the trail and
to provide facilities and resources to ensure that it is a quality experience
for everyone involved.
