TECHNICAL TRAINING AREA
To Be Constructed In
MOUNT WORK - HARTLAND
by
SOUTH ISLAND MOUNTAIN BIKING SOCIETY
Proposal submitted to Capital Regioanl District Parks - May 1, 2000
Proposal approved - Nov 10, 2000
A NOTE FROM SIMBS PRESIDENT, Nov 17, 2000
This TTA will have stunts to challenge the majority of riders at Hartland. For those of you that desire more extreme structures, think of the terrain parks at Whistler/Blackcombe and the massive jumps and pipes they now have. That stuff started out smaller and grew. We need your support to get this project built. Now we at SIMBS have gotten approval for the TTA, we invite all riders, members and non members alike to chip in.

Approval Conditions
CRD Parks has approved construction under certain conditions. See the text of the Approval Letter to understand the constraints on how we build. This is essential reading for anyone who wants to help!
Project Coordinator
Greg Carmichael is a SIMBS board member who will be coordinating the project. To get involved, E-Mail trails@simbs.com
How We Will Proceed
Greg will be collecting names and E-Mails of volunteers, and planning the project. The project will happen in stages, and different teams of people will be involved at different stages. There will be clearing the land, preparing the site, collecting materials, installing the stunts, signage, site control, to name a few. Some stunts will be built off site and trucked in. Where do you fit in?
