CMBA Annual General Meeting
on 11th ave & 8th St SW, February 15, 2PM. This is an all ages location/meeting
so we encourage everyone to attend the meeting to have their voices heard.
Freeriding/ Dirt jumping will be a major topic for discussion so don't miss out.
We would also like to thank everyone for the great responses we've
received regarding our push for a City approved dirt jump park. Now we would
like to make another call out for locations with a bit more criteria this
time:
1)We are looking for an area that is approximately 2 acres in size.
2)We would like access to water (preferably tap versus creek/pond), water is
the secret to great dirt jumps...
3)We would prefer areas not directly adjacent to houses so that noise levels
do not become an issue.
4)Easy biking distance to a city transit stop.
6) A Gentle slope is preferable as it saves from having to pedal hard into
jumps built on flat land( or having to build a large run-in).
5)City property is preferred over private property as then we won't have to
deal with a landowner as well.
6) Wind shelter (trees, buildings, fences, etc...) is definately a
consideratioon as it's usually pretty windy around here in the spring time.
We'd also like to note that there have been some requests for an indoor park, at
this time the costs involved in something like that would make it a little too
much to ask for. Let's prove to the city that a dirt jump park is a good idea
before we start asking for everything on our wish list. Send responses to info@cmbalink.com.
Thanks for the response and keep them coming!
