Chilliwack dirt jumps update

If you ride in Chilliwack, you may know that the dirt jumps have been plowed under. However - enough people made the right calls so that now the city is interested in rebuilding a sanctioned dirt jump park.

FVMBA is heavily involved in this endeavour and construction is underway!!

Report on Sumas trail day

sumas-2006-06-harder-01.jpg

The Time Killer Trail day was very successful:

About 30 people showed up, and we managed to greatly improve the exit of Time Killer. What was once a slimy mud-fest, now has more wood, drainage and armouring.

Thanks a bunch to all the volunteers that showed up and pitched in on the project.

Thanks also to:

  • Lifecycles in Abbotsford
  • The Bike Shop in Abbotsford
  • Cranky’s Bike shop in Aldergrove
  • ESC/Huckwagon of Vancouver

Each of these businesses donated items that were awarded as draw prizes to the workers.

Thanks also to:

Martin of ESC/Huckwagon for hauling out a van full of willing labour!! NSMBA for the generous donation of 2 cases of nails They are being put to good use!!

Thanks again to all. The turnout was impressive!!
