2026 March Monthly Newsletter
Next trail maintenance day is Mar 29
We always need volunteers for the trail maintenance days and highly encourage riders to come out and help. Trail days are typically the last Sunday of each month. We meet in the staging area around 9:30, organize into groups and then head out for around 10am. We rarely ride in to do trail work – we typically drive and hike in. Many locations will require a truck to get to. If you don’t have a 4×4/truck, you can always leave the car in staging and hop in with somebody else. Come prepared with proper clothing and footwear, bring a snack and water – the club will provide all the tools necessary.
Maple Ridge Motorsports membership drive and pizza day
March 28th, Maple Ridge Motorsports will have free pizza from 10am-2pm and will be doing a BMMC membership drive. We’ll be there to sell club memberships. Get some free pizza, browse around the store and get your 2026 membership if you don’t have it yet.
Route of all evil fun ride (ROAE)
ROAE is June 21st this year. We are still in need of volunteers, particularly a BBQ master – somebody to head up the BBQ cooking.
ORCBC funding
The club wasn’t successful with its funding request through the annual ORCBC fund – only 21% of the applicants received funding this year. We’re hopeful that we’ll get the ORV funding this year as we have since 2018.
ROAE/club sponsors
We’re always looking for club sponsors. Sponsorship can be cash, tools for trail work, or items to be given away at the ROAE. There are 3 tiers of sponsorship – Silver = $250, Gold = $500, Platinum = $1000. Contact the club for more information.

Watch for logging trucks on Alouette FSR/256th street, as they are tree harvesting on the north end of Alouette FSR.
Wet weather riding guide
See the club website (www.bluemountainmotorcycleclub.com) for the wet weather riding guide – with all the rain we’ve been having, we all need to make smart decisions about when to ride, what trails to ride to help preserve the trails.
Your mom won’t clean up after you
Pack it in pack it out. Please take your garbage and cans out with you, don’t leave them littering the trails.
Wed evening work parties
In preparation for the ROAE, we’ll be starting up the Wednesday evening work parties as soon as it’s light out until about 8:30pm or so. We typically meet at 5:30 (location may change depending on where we’re working.) There’s lots of trail prep needed before the ROAE, the Wed evening work parties are a great way to get some extra work done.
BMMC calendar
See the club website (www.bluemountainmotorcycleclub.com) for the club calendar, showing upcoming trail maintenance days, club meetings, Wed evening trail work days.
