New XC Line on Seymour: “Sticks & Stones”
The NSMBA is proud to announce the completion of a trail reroute on Seymour Mountain. Thanks to a grant from TD Friends of the Environment Foundation, the NSMBA trail crew has recently completed the first phase of what will be a four phase project ultimately resulting in a five kilometre cross country trail loop on Seymour Mountain. The loop will have sections of varying difficulties, but the main focus will remain on developing XC trails that are fun to ride and will stand the test of time on the North Shore.
Friends of the NSMBA
On a recent trip to Black Rock Oregon, the NSMBA bumped into some familiar faces. Thomas Vanderham, Geoff Gulevich, Andrew Shandro and Darcy Turrene were savouring the trails while shooting the upcoming Dakine 2010 catalogue with Sterling Lorence.
Working on the trails with the High School Mountain Bike League
On Wednesday April 7th, volunteers from the NSMBA assisted in coordinating a trail day for the High School Mountain Bike League. Staff from Metro Vancouver, students in the Cap U Outdoor Recreation Management Program, volunteers from the NSMBA trail team and of course the students, parents and teachers all made this day a great success. Work was completed on the Camp Brick/Richard Juryn, Hyannis and Blair Range courses. A parallel trail day was held on the Sunshine Coast by Ephinstone Secondary.
The weather was terrible, but we were able to complete most of the work without sinking too deeply in the mud!
We'd like to thank Wendy for wrangling up the high school crew, Heidi and the rest of the Metro Van staff for facilitating in Camp Brick/Richard Juryn, and Greig, Kris and Craig for bringing out the team from Cap U. Darryl and Randy from our trail team both volunteered extra time on a weekday afternoon to lead the crews at Hyannis. This day would not have been such a success without the dedicated efforts of these people.
We were all working too hard to take any pictures of all the students happily working away in the pouring rain and mud, but read on for more details of the improvements, including before and after photos.
If you want to see more work like this, make sure to join and donate to the NSMBA to show your support!

Redbull Hardline October 17, 2026See more details
Red Bull Hardline heads to beautiful British Columbia for its first-ever event in Canada, as riders prepare to take on this iteration of the world's most extreme downhill race at Cypress Mountain.
The unforgettable course at Cypress Mountain will be incomparable to other downhill bike courses, with elements borrowed from dirt jumping and BMX that are not allowed in the World Cup and other UCI races. These include massive jumps and gaps, steep drops of 10m plus, 'rock gardens', and steep descents.
You can catch all the action LIVE on Red Bull TV on Saturday, October 17. Want to witness the action in person? Tickets for Red Bull Hardline British Columbia will be going on sale soon! Check back soon for more information.
