Matt Ball is the Chairperson of the Nelson Mountain Bike Club in Nelson, NZ. He originally got his start in advocacy in Canada with the North Okanagan Cycling Society in Vernon, BC. Matt brings a unique perspective of seeing advocacy in different communities and in different countries. We discuss trail building vs. trail maintenance, and why the two can be so different from an advocacy perspective.
