NSMBA AGM - Dec 10th - Info and Survey Here…

2009-11-30T21:52:43-08:00

The NSMBA is having its Annual General Meeting on Dec 17th. It is a great time to come out to:
- learn how you can be more involved
- learn about what the NSMBA does
- help shape the NSMBA for the future

Location - 7pm, Jaycee House, North Van More Details Here

And they also have a rider survey that is gathering valuable information. The survey is important as they are trying to assess how the riding community perceives the NSMBA and also to help set the priorities for the association in 2010. It would be very much appreciated if you could help the association by:

1. Filling in the survey for yourself (if you haven’t already): http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N36PRLS

2. Letting your riding buddies know about the survey and the AGM!

Not into hibernating for the winter? Well, why not pay your favourite bikeshop a visit. This is the time to have our mechanics give your bike that special attention it needs. It is also a great time to check out the 2010 models. We are getting new models in every week. We also still have a good selection of 2009 bikes.
