It’s trail day season again!

Motor City Mountain Biking Association

It’s been a long, cold winter, and we can’t wait to get riding! In the daylight. Without studded tires. Without Moose Mitts and frozen toes.

Once again this Spring, 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 summer 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 on our Events page, in Facebook group, and our Michigan Mountain Biking Association forum. Please join us if you can!
