Welcome to September my favorite time of year. It marks the end of summer, and the fall riding begins. The leaves start to change and transforms the forest into a blanket of amazing colors. The kids go back to school, and our busy summer gives way to our regular routines. This is true for the atv club as well. The summer has seen lots of rides and adventures.

The Belair ATV club has put in countless hours of trail work this summer. The volunteers have been grooming, brushing and signing the trails and there is a noticeable change in trail conditions. There is still lots of work to do but we need more volunteers to come forward and help whenever they can, the more people helping means less work for the rest who are doing the work. The club membership has been growing steadily with over 150 members to date.

On Aug 16 the Belair ATV club in conjunction with Westside Powersports in Selkirk, Mb held their club and customer appreciation ride. It was a record setting ride with 118 people attending and 82 machines. There was a huge free bbq and lots of prizes given away. The ride went as planned and everyone returned safe. That’s quite the feat considering it was done at night. The feedback indicates that everyone had a great time.

We hope everyone has a great fall and look forward to seeing you on the trails.
