Hello! My name is Gabe, and I founded 207MTB in 2019 based on a simple idea: create a place to be nice and talk bikes.

207MTB is a bike community that welcomes riders of all types. Regardless of your skills, age, fitness, or equipment, if you like riding mountain bikes in Maine you're one of us.

The response from our community has been stupendous. We have grown to over 10,000 riders across Maine and New England - everyone from beginners to hardcore racers - all united by the shared love of mountain biking.

How to find us

Our Facebook group is very active and well-moderated.

Many of us are active with NEMBA either leading or participating in group rides, building trails, or advocating for MTB in Maine. We have 207MTB swag in our online shop. You can also find us occasionally posting on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.

Our Philosophy

We're a family-friendly group with a clear ethos to be supportive and spread the stoke. Social media can be a toxic wasteland and we're on a mission to keep it out of our community.

Like any group of enthusiasts or athletes, mountain biking isn't immune to elitism, cliquiness, and bullying. When I started this group, I made it my mission to shut all of that down and create a place founded on inclusivity, togetherness, and encouragement. Many have found this to be a breath of fresh air and embraced our philosophy. We all just want to see each other succeed, geek out on bikes together, and make this community something to be proud of.

We also deeply value the importance of each of our individual opinions. Having lots of perspectives is a wonderful thing but we all see how it can devolve into conflict, especially online. We have a pretty simply philosophy here as well. Be respectful, and don't attack people personally. We'll do everything we can to protect the right to express your opinions as long as you aren't being a jerk about it.

We keep this ship upright with a set of pretty clear rules.

We also might have a thing for posting bike pics. Is that just an us thing? I think that might be a universal mountain biker thing. So, um, in that spirit...
