Subject: MMBTS Trail Day and Toonie Race Rescheduled.. and some News
Hello MMBTS Members!!
I hope everyone is having a great season on and off the bikes. We've had our share of moisture, but there are good conditions to be found if the timing (or driving distance) is right!
Thanks to everyone who came out last Thursday for the trail clean-up. A little love goes a long way.
There is a lot of activity behind the scenes at MMBTS these days.
We've received amazing news from the National Trail Coalition. They have approved our grant application to tackle some drainage, erosion, and sustainability issues at Moose Mountain. Being a government grant, there are plenty of hoops to jump through to turn the grant approval into activity on the dirt. This is where our focus will be for the next few weeks and we will keep the community posted. Rest assured, this is good news for everyone.
With this activity, along with all of our ride, work, and vacation
schedules, we've had to cancel this weekend's trail maintenace day. We are also rescheduling Sunday's toonie race.
The new dates are as follows:
- *Cancelled* Trail Day 3 – Saturday, August 22nd
- *Cancelled* Toonie Race 1 – Sunday, August 23rd
- *New* "Sick Day" Trail Day – Friday, September 18th
- Trail Day 4 – Saturday, September 26th
- *New* Toonie Race – Sunday, September 27th
We look forward to more great turnouts and good times at the rest of the MMBTS events. In the meantime, happy trails!
