Trails are for Kids!


Approved!

The City of Novi has approved our proposal to create a “kid’s singletrack” trail at Lakeshore Park!

This trail will provide tomorrow’s mountain bikers an awesome, fun place to ride and build biking skills in a safe environment. This trail will feature narrow, winding singletrack (but still suitable for training wheels!) an optional features such as bridges and ramps, all conveniently located near parking, picnicking, and playground facilities.

How can you help?

We’re hoping to make this a reality before our Take a Kid Mountain Biking event and have scheduled a build day for next Sunday, the 27th, starting at 10 am. This is a great opportunity for families to make a memory working together on a community project that they will enjoy for years to come!

Lunch provided.

Want to contribute?

The City of Novi will be providing signage and infrastructure, but we’re providing the wood, weed block, and finely crushed limestone for the trail itself.  You can help us cover the cost of these items by donating to the project at http://site.mcmba.org/index.php/get-involved/donate

  • New bridge at Highland

    New bridge at Highland

    The DNR and MCMBA joined forces this last weekend on a project to replace an old bridge on the Highland Recreation Area trail. Bridge work this time of year is a cold, wet, messy business… but the end reward is worth it! The new completed bridge is high and dry and looks great! Thanks team!

  • It’s trail day season again!

    It’s trail day season again!

    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…
