9:30 AM AT VEDDER MOUNTAIN
Please bring your shovels, rakes, picks and any buckets or wheelbarrows. The more people we can get out the more work we can get done so bring your parents.
Please do not bring your bike as there will be no where to put it while on the hill. Yes this will happen rain or shine.
If you need more info please contact Todd Hovde at Byker_guy28@hotmail.com

Ledgeview trail day - Sunday November 4!
Sponsored by Bike Brewery!
It’s time to give some love back to some of the Valley’s most used and abused trails! We’ll be meeting at the main parking area (by the golf course) at 9:00 am on Sunday November 4. There will be some tools, but it never hurts to bring your own.

The day that most of you thought would never come is around the corner. The first VMBA-backed trail day at the Woodlot is scheduled to take place on Sunday, 10 June 2007.
+ Trail: Giant Killer. The trail is beat and it needs lots of work.
+ No bikes. Please leave your bikes at home — there’ll be plenty of
opportunities to hit stuff another day.
+ Meet at the parking area at the north end of 287th (where you
normally park)at 9:15 for a 9:30am depart time. We expect things to
kick off at 10am at the bottom of the trail and continue until later.
+ Although we’ll have shovels, rakes, and other equipment up there, we’d like people to bring whatever they can to make sure we don’t run out of gear.
+ Refreshments // food will be provided
+ Be prepared to haul rocks and soil

Trail day on Red Mountain!
We’re going to clean out the trails for the XC portion of the upcoming Bear Mountain Challenge in July.
Red Mountain is directly across the street from the Bear Mountain DH course, so those familiar with Bear will know where to park:
Meet at Mill Pond parking lot, 10:00am May 13th.

Well, the weather gods helped us out with clear skies. We had a great turnout, at least 30 people…some of whom even stayed after lunch and worked until 5. Skidder received some buffing, with the takeoffs of some jumps cribbed in and re-dirted. The new jump we built last time on Hidden pleasures also received some buffing. Further down the trail, we continued with Gerald’s re-route. Things are looking good! (although the dirt does need some time to settle in, so please don’t everybody go and run up there to ride it).
Thanks very much to everyone who came out to help! If you were there, please send me your email address.
Thanks to Jack's Cycle in Chilliwack for providing lunch for our hungry volunteers! Thanks to Wentings' Cycle in Mission for “trail bucks”!
Next big trail day is April 21 on McKee peak (Ledgeview) in Abbotsford, sponsored by Abbotsford's newest bike shop, The Bike Brewery! See you all there!

On Sunday March 25, we’ll be having our first “official” trail maintenance day of 2007. The fine folks at Jack’s Cycle will be providing all the volunteers with free pizza lunch in exchange for all their hard work. We will be continuing the fine work started on Hidden Pleasures.
We’ll be meeting at Jack’s Cycle, located at 45735 Thomas Rd, Vedder Crossing in Chilliwack (beside McDonalds) at 9:30 and then heading over to Vedder shortly thereafter. Don’t worry if your vehicle is not capable of the drive up Vedder, we’ve got lots of trucks and arranging a ride up is no problem!
