Trailnet Champions: Jemila Collier, Hawkie Moore, and Hugh Share

At Trailnet, our volunteers are the heart of everything we do — from supporting rides, to building community, to advancing safer streets for all. This March, we’re proud to celebrate three incredible individuals not just as our March 2026 Trailnet Champions of the Month, but also our Volunteers of the Year. We’ll celebrate them at our annual Beans, Bikes, & Brews event on March 19. Each brings a unique perspective, deep commitment, and a shared belief in the power of biking to connect people and transform communities

Jemila Collier

Jemila Collier brings curiosity, intention, and a deep commitment to community into everything she does. A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Jemila is early in her career and already shaping a path focused on creating more equitable, human-centered urban spaces.

Biking is central to Jemila’s daily life, both as transportation and as a form of joy. Her lived experience as a bike commuter fuels her passion for mobility justice and safer streets. She is an active collaborator and organizer within the region, working alongside groups such as Trailnet, Citizens for Modern Transit, The Last Stop Bike Shop, and the St. Louis Coalition to Protect Cyclists and Pedestrians.

Jemila’s work extends beyond transportation into broader efforts to green the built environment and reimagine how cities can better serve people. Whether through engineering, advocacy, or community-building, she is driven by a vision of urban design that centers people, culture, and connection.

Hawkie Moore

Hawkie Moore has spent a lifetime teaching, whether on the slopes or on the road. After a career in educational publishing, and nearly five decades as a ski instructor (including 46 years at Hidden Valley and Telluride), Hawkie continues to mentor others as a Lead Trainer, helping instructors grow their skills and confidence.

That same passion for learning and exploration carries into his biking life. Having ridden on St. Louis roads for many years, Hawkie has witnessed firsthand the city’s transformation into a more bike-friendly place, and credits Trailnet as a key part of that progress.

A Trailnet volunteer since 2008, Hawkie looks forward each year to the release of the Classics Ride calendar, eager to explore new parts of the region by bike. (You may recognize him from ride check-in!) For him, the season builds toward one of Trailnet’s signature events: Ride the Rivers, a ride he describes as a truly outstanding experience year after year.

Hugh Share

For Hugh Share, biking isn’t just recreation; it’s a way of life. A retired sustainability professional who now consults on water projects around the world, Hugh spends much of his time outdoors, whether camping, hiking, or riding near national parks across the country.

Hugh has been a dedicated volunteer with Ride to Unite, a program that creates opportunities for people with disabilities to experience cycling. For more than 20 years, he has served as a tandem captain, riding alongside people with visual impairments and helping make biking more accessible and inclusive.

His commitment reflects a core belief that everyone deserves the joy and freedom of riding a bike. Hugh is also always eager to grow the community — and wants you to know that Ride to Unite is looking for more tandem captains and solo riders to get involved.

Together, Hugh, Hawkie, and Jemila represent the breadth and spirit of Trailnet’s volunteer community — experienced leaders, lifelong learners, and emerging changemakers working toward safer, more connected streets for all.We’re grateful for their time, energy, and passion — and proud to celebrate them as our March 2026 Trailnet Champions of the Month, and Volunteers of the Year. 🚲
