Volunteer With ARR

Our mission depends on dedicated community members and we are extremely proud to be supported by dozens of amazing Trail Stewards and Crew, Ride Leaders, and Special Event volunteers putting in hundreds of hours of work every year.

Here’s how you can help…

Trail Crew

Join our Trail Crew for a volunteer workday and connect to the trail in a whole new way! You’ll learn new skills as you help repair tread, build features, trim back face slappers and open up sight lines. There is no denying the sense of pride you get from testing a trail you helped build, or the satisfaction when you can enjoy a clean and safe environment for riding. Visit our Trail Crew page to see upcoming workdays, learn about past projects, submit volunteer hours or sign our waiver.

Ride Leaders

Do you know your way around your local network? Are you interested in helping us lead group rides? With an average Sunday attendance of 100 cyclists, we need knowledgeable individuals who can ride to a target pace and keep their group together!

Event Staff

Are you able to help out at our group rides or big events like Cranksgiving with things like rider check in, merch sales, course marshaling, set up, clean up, or food prep? We would love to add you to our list. You will be the first to hear of these opportunities when they are available. Volunteers usually get hooked up with swag, gift cards, or similar.

Sponsor Austin Ridge Riders

Our community extends beyond the trail! As an organization with over 600 paid members, we have a need for local partners who can help us advocate for trails, provide group rides and work day events, and reward our members and volunteers for their contributions.
