Let there be light!

The time of year when the lights go on! Part of the Hinton Community Grant received in April 2016, the solar panel and lighting setup (inside and outside of the main seacan) has been made fully operational this year. The lighting will be useful for visitors who ride a bit longer than anticipated and for those who enjoy night-riding. For those wishing to better plan their rides, this link can provide some information for the daily changes in sunrises and sunsets.http://www.sunrisesunset.com/canada/Alberta/Hinton.asp

Donation Received for Recent Bike Park Refurbishment

The Hinton Mountain Bike Association (HMBA) would like to thank Daniel Duval for donating $500 towards the Community Grant project at the Hinton Bike Park: Refurbishing Slope Wars, Fo'Shore and the Drop Zone. In the photo: Jay Hore, HMBA President (left) accepts the cheque from Daniel (right).

The HMBA was awarded two Community Grants from the Town of Hinton in April. The second grant will be used to build a ladder bridge over the 50-70 feet of wet/marsh at the end of Rock Band, a black diamond trail that was added to the Happy Creek Trail System last year.

Bike Park Project Almost Complete!

Awesome work done by HMBA's own Maureen Harper and Bill Heir. They have volunteered many hours of their time in the past few weeks getting our second seacan all spiffed up at the Hinton Bike Park. This is part of the Hinton Community Grant project which was awarded to HMBA back in April this year. The final step will be the installation of a light for the parking area.
