2013 North Shore Kick Ass Awards

2013 North Shore Kick Ass Awards

 

2013 was an incredible year on the Shore!  

The work accomplished was led by an army of people out in the field, as well as behind the scenes greasing the cogs.  There are a huge number of people to recognize and thank for your efforts.  For those of you who contributed in any way this year, a big thank you is in order.  

There were some exemplary contributers this year.  People who were out at every event, every trail day, going above & beyond to make things happen.  No matter how much was asked, the answer was always yes.  And for those who rose above the challenges and went beyond the call of duty, we recognize your efforts with the first ever, annual North Shore Kick Ass awards.  

The 2013 Kick Ass Awards recipients are:

Mathew Bond
Alaia Alsharif
Carl Moriarty
Dan Lui
Digger
Joanne Mayzes
Kevin Nesbitt
Martin Karlsson
Norma Ibarra
John Kearns
Pat Podolski
Rachid Nayel
Lindsay Schramm

 

Metro Vancouver sanctions two trails on Mt. Seymour

Discussions between the NSMBA and Metro Vancouver have resulted in the trails "Lola" and "Cambodia" being officially recognized by the land manager. Both of these trails are rated as expert (double black diamond) and are recommended for only the most experienced and skilled riders to ride at their own risk.

All Access MTB Trail Begins

All Access MTB Trail Begins

The NSMBA, working collaboratively with the DNV, has begun Phase 1 to create a barrier free All Access MTB trail on Fromme.
The NSMBA would like to thank lululemon for their support and funding for this project.  We would also like to recognize the support from North Shore Bike Shop for their efforts to reroute the mid section of the trail as well as ongoing improvements part of TAP.

"As part of lululemon's  sustainability  initiatives, the metta movement is a program aimed at supporting grassroots community activities that encourage people to live active, healthy lives."

Phase 1 begins with a retro fit of Bobsled.
