New Beginnings - BucksMTB
The Mountain Bike Club
For those of you that have been followers of
BucksMTB for some time may well know we have a long and varied history. The
website has been running now for eight long years, and the site as you see it
today differs a huge amount to the early versions. The first humble website was
started in 2002 purely as a showcase for our photos and personal riding
adventures. Over the years the website has grown bigger and bigger and with more
and more support each year the website has gone from strength to strength.
Over the years as the website has expanded so has the team and our offerings to
you, the local riders.
For the past couple of years now we have been running regular monthly Cross
Country group rides and have organised DH/4X Days, away riding days and have
been involved in various other local events.
Our next logical step to combine all of our
ideas and offerings, and to be able to offer those sensible and safely has
resulted in BucksMTB forming into a Mountain Bike Club. Not just any Mountain
Bike Club either, a fully affiliated and insured Club with affiliations to the
CTC and BikeClub. We are not one of these organisations claiming falsely to be a
'club', we can now hold our heads high and say we are an official Mountain Bike
Club, and on that note we are a Mountain Bike Club for you, the local riders.
As of January 2011 we are now an official
Mountain Bike Club.
The new appointment of BucksMTB as a Club
brings many new possibilities to our team in regard to what we can offer and
organise for you. It also means we can expand on current offerings and ideas and
also introduce many new offerings, ideas and locally organised group rides and
events.
From all the team at BucksMTB we would like to
say a huge thanks to BikeClub who have assisted us greatly in getting setup as
an official Club, and also a huge thank you to them for providing some funding
for us to expand and improve both the Club and the website.
Please keep checking back to the site, and
keep an eye in your email inboxes for more news and information on what we are
going to be able to start offering very soon.
Thank you to you all for being so loyal and
supportive over the years, and we hope to be able to see you all more regularly
and we look forward to the new ideas and products that we will be able to
provide for you.
Here's to our fresh new beginnings and to many
more years of BucksMTB.
Best Wishes
The BucksMTB Team
