Thank you to all of our members for the support this year; to the businesses who sponsored events; to the volunteers who shovelled rock and cleared drains to fix trails; to the committee who gave their time to make things happen behind the scenes; to the parents who came along with their kids to our socials rides; to the people who donated funds and for all the other rad people who love bikes as much as we do and came along to our events!
Although 2021 was another challenging year with lots of trail closures and frustrations, the good 'ol saying that "you biggest struggles bring your greatest growth" was true for us!
