It’s trail day season!


Along with our fellow chapters, the MCMBA is hosting a series of trail days at our area trails. These trail days are a great time to clean up winter deadfall, work on special projects, and generally get the trails ready for the peak riding season.

Working on a trail you love to ride can be very rewarding. If you haven’t participated in a trail day before, we have a small FAQ with helpful tips.

Our traildays are announced in Facebook group and our Michigan Mountain Biking Association forum. Please join us if you can.
