Cobble Wobble 2010

Many of you will know that the Black Canon Collective were the people who, on the day, made the Cobble Wobble run smoothly (both this year and last). Check out this great video produced by Charge Bikes and Red Bull to showcase the event…

…not bad ey? I’d like to say a massive thank you too all the BCC members who worked so hard over the whole day – the event wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for you.

Dig Day Done

Published by under BCC,Dig Day,Volunteering

Saturday’s Dig Day was quality.
Loads of people turned up to help and as a result we got everything done with plenty of time left to ride.
We built a new top section for puppets, repaired and extended the top berms on 143, repaired ‘weeeboing’ and raked every inch of every trail leaving them looking amazing and helping those lovely roots come through.
Next dig day we’ll be building an extended and stepped rock garden at the top of spoons ready for the TickerTape triple crown in october – so please come along and help out as it’ll be a mammoth task but be awesome once done.
Cheers!
