2016 Gear Swap Recap

2016 Gear Swap Recap

Another beautiful Sunday, May 1st, was spent in and around Jaycee House with old gear, new gear, bikes that were passed over to new homes and superb community feeling. A great day was had by all, and we made some money too! 
We are pleased to tell you that over 30 bikes sold! Not as many as last year, perhaps everyone is set for 2016 or doesn’t want to let go of their current steeds? We had a great amount people leaving with memberships, trail passes, and fresh new ‘I Dig The Shore’ t-shirts. After expenses, we are happy to let you know we made about $4000!

This weekend could not, and would not have happened without the help of our amazing volunteers!!!

Goal Reached for Heritage Campaign

Goal Reached for Heritage Campaign

The 2015/2016 NSMBA Heritage Campaign has now closed. The NSMBA is proud to announce that we have reached our $12,000 goal. We are grateful for the generosity of our community as it allows us to work on and maintain a challenging heritage trail on the North Shore.

Bridle Path Maintenance to begin…

Bridle Path Maintenance to begin…

In 2013, MEC supported NSMBA efforts to create bypasses, install a kiosk and general maintenance on Bridle Path including structure assessment and replacement.  Maintenance on these sections will commence starting end of January and continue east as time permits.  Please find the work plan HERE. Any questions can be directed to info@nsmba.ca.

January 2016 Trail Update

January 2016 Trail Update

2016 is coming in like a LION!

The Shore is runnin HAWT! And everyone in the Sea to Sky is coming down to play while Squish, Whistler & Pemby are under snow. While Fromme was still under snow, riding pressure was through the roof on Seymour. As trails get busier, please use some common sense. Don't stop in the middle of descents and be sure to take out your earphones when crossing other trails. The trails belong to all of us so please respect others and respect the trails. A little goes a long way – slow down when you see other users, even a friendly "Hallo" and a smile makes people feel warm & fuzzy. Sometimes, there's no hard & fast rule so remember; "Courtesy has right of way."

We're all in this together 🙂
