NSMBA Toonie Race – Mt. Fromme Top to Bottom – September 1st, 2012
Mark your calendars! The next installment of the 2012 NSMBA Toonies is coming up on Saturday, September 1st. This is one of the longest courses of the year, starting just below 7th Secret, and following Leppard, Kirkford, Crinkum Crankum and Upper Griffen down the flank of Fromme before the final dash up King of the Shore to the water towers. View the course map here. We need course marshals and first aid volunteers for this event, so please contact us if you're available to help.
NSMBA Toonie Race – 7th, Pipeline, Baden Powell – August 4th, 2012
Early Saturday morning, volunteers and racers made their way up Fromme for the Toonie Race. At 10:00am sharp, racers were on the course with times ranging between 18 and 44 minutes. Thanks to Steed Cycles for keeping us company at registration, and Waves Coffee – Lynn Valley for getting the caffeine going early!
Mark Saturday, September 1st on your calanders for the next Toonie Race. We'll start again at 7th Secret, but stay on for the whole ride down Leppard, Krinkum Krankum, Upper Griffen and up KOTS to the water towers.
Ilana and Andrew, who have led the Toonies for the past two years, have just opened a coffee shop on Commerical Drive. We're looking for some extra help with the Toonies while they're away working to get their new business up on its feet. Please contact us if you are interested in continuing this awesome event!
Bottletop Evening Trail Maintenance Wednesday, August 8th at 6pm
Bottletop is just about perfect this time of year thanks to the work that Different Bikes and NS Ride did last year for TAP 2011, led by Daniel Lui and Darryl Marlatt TAP build leaders.
The final traverse on Bottletop is littered with pebbles and baby heads, with a thin track winding through it.
We'll need a couple hours with a small crew to rake out the last steep section. Anybody is welcome to come lend a hand.
Meeting time is 6pm on the trail, Wednesday August 8th. Meet at the bottom of the trail on Fisherman's at Twin Bridges and we will walk up from there.
