Our friends at City of Mount Holly, NC have made big commitments to connect community and nature. This is another amazing example of those efforts.

If you haven't been to Mountain Island Park Trails in Mount Holly recently, it's worth checking out. Mount Holly Parks and Recreation added the flow & jump lines to connect to the existing trails that we built and maintain. Our Trail Coordinator & First VP, Bruce Euler, recently completed a new section with plenty of fun wooden features!

More trail additions to come in Gaston County! Stay tuned!

Its that time of year again to cut back the overgrowth on Backyard Trails.

If you have a string trimmer, loppers, brush cutter, or pole hedge clippers please bring them. We will have a few machines but the more the merrier.

Wear long sleeves and pants, bring eye and ear protection and some water with some way to carry it.

We will meet at the parking lot on Tyvola rd at 8:30a to divide into groups and clear as much as we can.

All hands on deck for this one! The more people we have, the more progress we'll make!

The trails need members. The club could use the tools. And you might win some gear.

Join or renew *before the end of May* and every membership helps the Trailblazers compete for a $500 trail tool package from Backslope Tools.

Plus, you’ll be entered for a chance to win one of SORBA’s member prize packages, including bike cleaning kits, gear, gift certificates, and other rider-friendly stuff.

Not sure if you’re current? That happens more than you’d think! Life gets busy.
But it only takes about 60 seconds to make it official.
