      UPDATE 12/31/20: We VP trail stewards are starting a project to make the trails suitable for wet riding by putting down gravel and we need your help You can donate directly to KYMBA using the green Trail Karma button on the right or come help volunteer. We will be posting volunteer work days on the KYMBA-Bluegrass Facebook page or you can message the Veterans Park Facebook page which will contact us directly.

      Veterans Park is a the main place to ride in Lexington and is a great place for a zippy cross country ride or a skills sesh with the bros on our jump lines. With about 14 miles of trails and endless combinations of the trails you can have an extended ride, run or hike out here so come one out! We are an all volunteer trail crew so your support whether it be time or money really does help! You can donate directly to our organization, KYMBA, from this page. Some of our 2020 projects funded by you included the rock garden and ramp roll in on Jetstream, the log skinny on Jetstream, the signage throughout the park. We also added Fine Dining and 100 Proof, two of our favorites, with the help of volunteers. We are a passionate but small group with big dreams for Veterans and we need your help to realize them!
