News/Events

The Marshview trail work previously scheduled for this Saturday (23 April) has been cancelled by the City of Virginia Beach, who now want to have a City representative on-site for any future work so they can address any further citizen concerns. The trail captain is still having a walk-through on Saturday, same time and location, to review what remains to be done. A tentative new work date of May 14th has been proposed, but we will announce the final date/time when we get closer and the City can confirm their participation.

Good news! EVMA has the green light to resume work at the new Marshview trails. We will be having a work day this Saturday (4/23) from 9-12 for the back section of trails. Please bring your shovels/rakes and meet in the dog park parking lot at 8:45 as we have before.

March and April -  For both months, Freedom Park trails D and E will be reversed.  There will be signs clearly marking this.  It’s a great opportunity to ride some new trails in your hometown. 

New Leadership – EVMA is seeking new leadership.  All positions are available.  President, Secretary, Trail Captains and others. If you are interested in any position, please reply to this email.  We do have to have certain positions filled to continue as a group. You love to ride your bike, so consider giving back to your community doing something you love.
