Fall 2011
BORCA is now an official not-for-profit incorporation!
Over the past couple months we have continued to maintain and fine-tune the existing network as well as begin to clear some new trails.
This winter we will find the time to create an official trail map of the surrounding network of old roads, double track and singletrack. We will commence the application process for various grants and continue to plan our long term goals of creating an IMBA EPIC trail along the shores of the mighty Ottawa River.
In May 2012 BORCA will host the 3rd SPRING CHICKEN ENDURO, a 50km or 25km (and kiddies) Mtb race and trail running event (5km/10km). BORCA will be hosting the event in conjunction with the Beachburg JAM - an action packed weekend of live music, tasty food and good times all around. Stay tuned.
Happy Trails

Summer 2011
June, July and August saw quite a few more kilometers of singletrack being built in the Beachburg area. Four kms along the shores of the Ottawa River and four in the Village of Beachburg, including the County Forest Trails. See link to maps on the right.
Thanks Giving weekend saw a scouting trip to the islands across the rapids of the Ottawa River, to explore the trails and roads that this area has to offer. Only accessible by boat, these islands are packed with great views, history and culture.
Happy Trails :)

Officially a Club.
BORCA is now officially a club.
We registered with IMBA (www.imbacanada.com) a month ago and are now on the roster! We are also just finishing up our Incorporation papers and will now be able to apply for many more grants, meaning....more trails sooner.
Stay tuned. Updated trail map coming soon.

Welcome!
BORCA is currently in the process of applying for funding through various grant providers. We are still 'unofficially' an association. We plan to have club status come June 2011, with hopes of commencing major trail production then and preparing for a xc ski season with groomed trails for December 2011.
