2010
Thought it would be worthwhile to post what we accomplished last year, as an unofficial cycling club.
1. A total of 45 hours of trail maintenance work, in and around the Beachburg County Trails.
2. Organized the 1st Beachburg Mtn bike enduro and fun run. We had hoped to get about 50 people and ended up with 99 competitors....2011 race should be a big one!
3. Dismantled some dangerous stunts in the county trails (1 day of work)
4. Reclaimed some old singletrack that disappeared due to the September 2010 logging project (my bad for not marking it). (4 days)
5. Started to organize Beachburg Off Road Cycling Association (B.O.R.C.A.) for the 2011 season.
6. Let's not forget the creation of the Beachburg Mtn. Bike Pump Track located in the Fair Grounds....a great success and starting point for mtn bike advocacy in the area.
2011 should be a fantastic year, with hopes of getting some funding for a community trail system (summer and winter).
