The International Mountain Bicycling Association (Canada) is coming to British Columbia! AJ Strawson and Rachael Raven of the IMBA Canada Trail Care Crew will be in the Fraser Valley for a free IMBA Trail Building School with Fraser Valley Mountain Bike Association/Metro Vancouver Parks
Come out to meet the IMBA Crew, and network with other trail users in your area! You’ll learn the art and science of sustainable trail building, and get hands-on instruction in the field!
This is an important trail day ladies – There will be good representation from local governments at this event, and the FVMBA need to get a good turnout, and better yet, a gender equal turnout!
Not a mountain biker? The principles of building sustainable trails apply to all users (hikers, trail runners, equestrians, and cycling), and our workshops are open to the public — all users and land managers are invited. Get more info on the IMBA Canada Trail Care Crew here.
Please RSVP for Saturday’s Trail Building School on the IMBA Wesbsite.
