We are currently looking for people who would like to help take responsibility of their local track. The WDMBA currently Manages Rheola, Gethin and Mountain Ash for the Forestry Commission.

What we want, is Groups of about 6 people, with one trail leader. The trail leader will be in charge of the building activities and arranging the meetings. The WDMBA has insurance and permission to build on FC land so you wont see your work torn down!

The FC currently has some funding so we are hoping that we will be able to develop the tracks more.

WHY DIG???

1. Dig crews will have free entries to uplift days at their track- it’s only fair!!

2. Digging is great training and gives you a great insight into lines and how tracks run.

3. It’s really satisfying to see your work being raced by the top Elite riders, and especially to ride yourself!

4. If your doing doing DoE award it can count as an element, If your unemployed, or even if you aren’t, voluntary work looks great on your CV!

5. Just remember, building requires riding! So one of the tools you’ll need to bring is your bike! You build it, you ride it!

If your interested, e mail JT on jt_sw81@hotmail.com, put something like dig crew in the subject line. Cheers!
