Motor City Mountain Biking Association

You’ll want to head right over to your calendar and write “Lakeshore – 1 PM!” in ink on Oct 5th. Here’s what’s happening:

Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day

Join us at Lakeshore Park in Novi on October 5 from 1 to 6 p.m. to take your kid mountain biking! We will have four trail courses of varying levels, including a longer course with a pump track and more advanced trail features, as well as a grassy skills course including wooden bridges for kids to practice on.  Click here for more information!

 

Rad MTB Skillz Clinic

Have you ever wanted to look cool at a stop light doing a track stand?
Impress your friends by riding off a drop effortlessly?

Come to the Rad MTB Skillz Clinic and you will learn all of these moves and more.
Radical Rick and his Expert friends will teach you:
Track Stands, Bunny Hops, Skinnies and Drops.
Not only will these skillz help you look cool in front of your friends, they will also help you improve your handling skillz on the trail.

Both events are free, and the MCMBA will provide tasty food hot off our swanky grill for your enjoyment!

    Awareness Signs

    One of the common refrains from our recent membership survey was the need for more chapter promotion at our trails. We agree. MCMBA board member John Cox made arrangements for the printing of a stack of these cool weatherproof signs. Look for them to start popping up at a trail near you!
