Yo, Calgary and riders of Moose mountain! Clear your calenders for the weekend of Sept 26 and 27th. Saturday the 26th marks the day to join your community with MMBTS to bring mucho trail love to Moose mtn.

Grab your bike and embrace your inner redneck at the 2nd annual "More Redneck 2knee Race" on the 27th sponsored by Team Pilsner.Decide to improve the ride and give back to your trail network by teaming up with MMBTS to help "bring the buff" to Moose mountain. Come on out to the 2km locale of Moose mountain road at 11 am on Saturday the 26th . Projects on the hit-list include general buffing and maintenance of T-dub, JG on the Rocks, Toothless, SLF, Billy Dog, Race Of Spades, and adding some finishing touches to Pneuma. We plan to grow the flow until 4 pm, and then celebrate a day seized with a BBQ and social at the 2km Locale.



Last years toonie race was by far one of the most fun filled days I have ever experienced at Moose mountain. You don't want to miss this one..."The More Redneck Team Pilsner 2knee Race". Last year's anti has been raised. This year's race is to be held on the infamous T-dub line with all of us rockin it out in the gully. This is a 3-stage race: after approx 4 minutes of T-dub gnarl, and after you cross the finish line, the clock will continue to run as you will be timed while you chug a one choice beverage. Then you must embrace precision skills and perform in front of the heckling audience by shooting the Pil' bunny. (Don't worry, we aren't talking actual firearms, nor live bunnies.) Intervals for each stage will be made available. Registration is at 10 am at Ing's Mine parking lot, and the race is to commence around noon. Come on out and sner in the fun.


Wow, what a summer! Here at MMBTS, we have been a very busy troop, indeed. Between advocating for our trails, applying for grants, keeping the trails flowing, and getting in more riding than I ever thought possible, it sure does seem like summer jumped on the mother ship and sailed outta here at warp speed. Luckily, the fall weather has been keeping the awesome-meter - awesome - and our fat tires rollin' in fine form.


We have had some big news at MMBTS. In our first year of operation, we have been fortunate enough to accomplish a great deal. Just recently, we were awarded a grant from the National Trail Coalition that will enable us to work towards the goals of our society by hiring a dedicated trail crew for the last couple of months of the riding season. Getting to this point in just 9 months was beyond all of our expectations. I could only imagine if more of our community stepped up on the advocating front what could be collectively possible. If you think you have something to offer be sure to drop us a line at info@mmbts.com.


MMBTS was formed by a bunch of riders/builders pickin' up a storm, hammering hard, pounding laps and talkin' trails. So you can be sure despite all the meetings and business stuff we would rather be shredding or building than pushing paper and being all PC. So giddyup and team up with MMBTS and help harmonize all the efforts and work into our trails where they belong.

Come on out and get involved!
