Trail Work Sessions - Thursday Evening & Saturday Morning PDF Print E-mail
Written by Rusty Hopper

A couple more work session will bring the trails to 100%.  Trimming of the ferns is still needed on a dozen sections and it sounds like a few trees came down in the last storm.

I'll be out Thursday June 20th 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm and Saturday June 22, 7:00 am to 1:00 pm.

All hands are welcome.  Come out for the whole time, or just what you can spare.  When you arrive on site call or text me at 919-1057.

If you have a gas-powered trimmer, bring it out.  Gloves, bug spray, eye and hearing protection are an asset.

Saturday, 27 April 2013 10:52

The program is held on 6 Sundays during the summer, skipping long weekends and Club event weekends.

Dates:    Jun 23, Jul 7, Aug 11, Aug 18, Aug 25, Sep 8

Time:    10:00 am to noon (before it gets too hot)

Where:   Naughton Trails, 1 Denis Ave, Naughton, ON

Cost:      The fee for the program is $25

               A $25 WMBC youth membership is required

Registration is using Zone4 at https://zone4.ca/register.asp?id=4789.

 

The program is open to children aged 9 to 13.  Children 14 and older are encouraged to come out to the regular group rides on at Naughton Wednesday evenings 6:30 to 8:30 and Sundays 10:00 to 12:00.  Check out www.waldenmbc.ca for times and locations of the Saturday rides that will rotate between sites in Sudbury.

 

The sessions are designed to give children the basic skills needed to enjoy riding on single track trails.  The program sessions focus on the skills necessary for bike control, getting over obstacles as well as climbing and descending hills. Included are discussions trail etiquette and learning how to set-up the bike for safe riding.

 

Each session will consist of a "skill of the day" with games or drills and a trail ride on the lower section.

 

This is the third year we have offered this program and are keeping the cost low to encourage participation.  Enrollment is limited to 12 as we have a limited number of coaches.   We have more coaches being trained this spring, so may be able to offer more sessions.

 

Local Mountain Bike Events to include on your summer calendar include:

  • Come and ride with Olympians 9am-12pm on Saturday July 13th
  • Come out to watch the Canada Cup race on Sunday July 14th
