Howdy folks! The Calgary Mountain Bike Alliance is submitting a grant application for the MMEE, and is looking for ideas and volunteers. To support the proposal, we need to have "evidence" that a trail needs work. Photos, GPS/map coordinates, detailed descriptions of problem areas - anything you have that could be used to support the argument that some work needs to be done in a specific area. I don't think the CMBA website has been updated with this info yet. If you do go to the site, please create an account - it will make you a member of the CMBA. It's free! And now a word from CMBA prez Rob Irwin:
CMBA is preparing to submit an application for funding from the Moose Mountain Environmental Enhancement fund (MMEE) to address some problem trail sections and make moose mountain a better destination with more sustainable trails meeting IMBA standards. We are looking for firm commitments from our supporters. If you are interested in: 1) providing input into the design plan or 2) Know of a specific trail issue that needs to be addressed or 3) committing some volunteer labour to the execution of the final plan please contact Robert Irwin at president@cmbalink.com before March 1st, 2009. In an attempt to maximize CMBA's chances of receiving grant money from the MMEE we need to show that there is a large mountain bike population interested in bettering local trail systems. Go to 'Friends of CMBA' on Facebook or visit www.cmbalink.com to show your support.
Please feel free to discuss potential projects here as well - if we put our heads together, I'm sure we can produce some quality ideas. Thanks!
