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.

We just need to help it along… Back in 2009, we had a short problem area at Lakeshore, a section of trail…
