About this event
🛠️ NMBC April Dig Day sponsored by Rock City Cycles
This Dig Day, we’re gathering on Pink Unicorn to put some care back into a trail many riders know and love.
Whether you’re a seasoned builder or a total beginner, our dig days are a great way to give back to the trails we love and meet the local riding community.
Weather Policy
In true Island fashion, we dig in the rain, but not in atmospheric rivers. We embrace the damp loam, but if a major storm or high-wind warning is in effect, we will postpone. If you don't hear from us, grab your rain gear and we’ll see you there!
The Details
- Plan: For this trail day we are going to try something different. All club supplied tools will be waiting for us at the trail. If you bring your own tools you will need to bring them to the trail. You are invited to ride in so you can ride the work when we are finished. You are still welcome to walk to the trail. We will meet at Arbot Rd parking, break up into riding and walking in groups and head up to Pink Unicorn. Once we are finished working on the trail and testing the work we will head back down to Arbot Rd where Rock City Cycles will have pizza and refreshments for us.
