We've really enjoyed being the largest of 49 mountain bike non profit in the entire Southern Off-road Bicycle Association with over 760 members. We have a goal to get to 800 members by the end of October and could really use your help. Every individual and family member counts towards that total.
There are tangible benefits that you get by being a member, like savings on loads of outdoor gear along with local savings, but we'll get to those in future posts. What likely matters to you is that your membership helps fund the maintenance of over 175 miles of trail at 25 different parks in 5 different counties across our region. It takes an enormous amount of effort to maintain AND protect that trail.
Equally important is that we leverage our organization's membership total to advocate on behalf of the mountain bike and trail community across the Charlotte region to get access to land, protect access of existing trail, and get access to resources and grants for larger scale projects. Imagine how much more clout we collectively have when our membership continues to grow.
Our furthest away member lives over 2,700 miles from Charlotte in Washington State. If you're a local trail user in our region and not currently a member, we'd love for you to consider joining. It takes just a few minutes and only costs $39/year for an individual and $50/year for a family. Your membership will go a very long way to helping the trails throughout the region.

For those of you who are members, we appreciate you more than you could possibly know. If you made it this far in the post, we'd love for you to engage by liking, commenting, or sharing. That helps get the message in front of more people.
Thank you! š¤š
