We are excited to share the news that the Ponti Ridge Trail in North Marin was recently awarded “Best New Trail” at the California Trails and Greenways Conference. The trail is quickly becoming one of the most popular recreational destinations in Marin County for hikers and cyclists.
Volunteers make Bike to Work Day a fun, empowering celebration of the happiest, healthiest, and most sustainable form of transportation. Whether you’re able to stuff goodie bags, hang posters, or join us at Energizer Stations to cheer on our bike commuting heroes, we need your smiling face!
MCBC is pleased to welcome Dana Martin to our team! Dana joins MCBC as Community Engagement Manager, where she’ll be central to our on-the-ground efforts to expand and engage Marin’s cycling community.
With safety at the forefront of MCBC’s mission, we are proud to be the eyes and ears of the 2018 Jensie Gran Fondo of Marin – providing Course Marshal support on Saturday, September 29th – to cover all shifts, we need volunteers throughout the day to act as course marshals.
Paloma Ojeda is not only a member of MCBC, she volunteers regularly and even helped get some of her friends and coworkers on board as members. Most recently, Paloma was a participant in MCBC’s 7th annual Dirt Fondo. Here’s why she’s so passionate about cycling in Marin.
August was a great month for volunteering with MCBC, with volunteers serving hydration and snacks to Marin Century riders, and helping pull off one of our most successful Dirt Fondo events ever!. A warm thank you to all of our volunteers for helping spread the love in the MCBC cycling community – check out these photos
With riders covering up to 45 miles along Marin’s challenging trails, your volunteer efforts are key to making sure the ride goes off without a hitch. Everyone always appreciates the enthusiastic help on the course, at energizer stations, and through the epic post-ride BBQ! Help us make this event a success.
Hilary Hyde of Mill Valley has volunteered many hours with MCBC. She took a moment to talk with us about her cycling experiences and positive perspective as she enjoys every opportunity to “bike, hike, and volunteer more.”
Every rider agrees – there’s nothing like the enthusiastic support from our amazing MCBC Volunteers! We’re looking for volunteers at the two biggest Marin county cycling events this August – the Marin Century and MCBC Dirt Fondo.
Join MCBC on Saturday, August 4 at the 56th Marin Century – the bay area’s largest rolling party! Enjoy the amazing riding opportunities available on any of the six fully supported routes ranging from 30 to 200 miles. And MCBC members can save 10% on any route entry – just use this special code.
On a day when riders will cover up to 45 miles, it’s up to our amazing MCBC volunteers to mark the route, lead and sweep to keep riders on the course, keep riders hydrated and enthusiastic at rest stations, and help make sure everyone has enough to eat and drink at the celebratory post-ride BBQ!
Thousands of riders rolled past a dozen Energizer Stations on Thursday, May 10, celebrating Bike to Work Day throughout the North Bay! Our Super Energizer Station on the Mill Valley Bike Path saw one its highest counts ever, with riders grabbing a snack and enjoying the encouragement from our amazing MCBC volunteers and sponsors!
