Local Dirt – SORCA’s Fall Update
Local Dirt – Fall membership Update
SORCA’s semi-annual (Spring and Fall) membership report dives into all aspects of our association. Long-time SORCA members may recognize ‘Local Dirt’ as it was the name of the original newsletter begun in 1992!

March 15th’s dig day on Entrails marked the first of many chances for you to come and get your hands dirty on the trails in 2023. ![]()

Our members spoke, and we listened: you want more opportunities and fewer barriers to build and help maintain our incredible trail network. With that in mind, we created a packed dig day schedule for 2023 with 19+ dig days scheduled throughout the year. ![]()

In an effort to foster inclusivity and remove barriers to entry, we are introducing women-led led, youth-friendly, and beginner-level dig days this season as well! ![]()

Between Mar 25th and April 9th SORCA invites you to get out on the trails for Squamish’s first Spring Tune-Up ride and fundraiser for the Howe Sound Women’s Center! Envisioned by local shredder Laura Battista and supported by 7mesh and Corsa Cycles, SORCA has brought to life a virtual event encouraging some early-season riding time for a good cause.![]()

This challenge is meant to get you out on the trails for either a 20km Super ride (mostly blues/greens) or the 50km Mega ride, which is a much more challenging course!![]()

You must complete and record the entirety of the course in one day on Trailforks to get the badge and secure an entry for a chance to win one of 10 Corsa & 7mesh prize packs! ![]()

We recently received word from BC Hydro that they will be mowing the area within their right-of-way (some of which is pictured here). This will result in intermittent closures of Rob's and Cliff's Corners, access to Man Boobs and the top of Rock & Roll as of next week for two weeks. ![]()

If riding in this area over the next few weeks please be mindful, safe and respectful of workers and closures.
We hosted our first Dig Day of 2023 last week on Entrails!![]()
