Motor City Mountain Biking Association

Volunteer

Your time is important.

Sure your membership helps and we can put your donations to good use, but if you really want to make a difference, give us a few hours of your time. Clearing branches off a trail after a storm, grilling food for hungry racers at a fundraising event, teaching eager children how to ride over a log at a biking clinic – these are the things that build better trails and a vibrant community.

From time to time, we issue a call for volunteers to support a trail day, race event, or other activity using email, our Facebook group and our Michigan Mountain Biking Association forum. Please heed the calls.

If you have other ideas or questions regarding how to help, please contact us at info@mcmba.org.

We’ll be scheduling trail work sessions in the coming days, but it’s a busy time of year and organized work days don’t always work with everyone’s schedule.…
