The Midwest Freeride Community exists to provide the resources, event development, and communication infrastructure necessary to unite and progress the Downhill and Freeride Mountain Bike scene throughout the Midwest.

Founders

Adam Buck
Buck has been supporting the scene by bringing you innovative events (such as Red Bull Ride the Sky and Duluth Jigantic Jam) and video production for almost a decade. Buck House Productions is a prime example of an organization that supports the industry. He wants to bring his prowess for events to the entire Midwest.

Tony Benusa
Tony has been behind a lot of happenings in the community. From trail building and designing to rippin’ the local dirt jumps to helping build the features used for Ride the Sky. If it happened in Minnesota and it was for big bikes Tony was in the dirt workin’ hard to help make it happen. He wants to bring his vision of a connected Community to the Midwest.
