In Honor of the workday tomorrow at the Brunswick Nature Park, I figured that it would be good to give us a little fun motivation to go out and build stuff! Ladies and gentlemen, its time to get DIRTY!
SEE YOU AT THE PARK!
I am proud to announce that we have now opened the forums at CapeFearSORBA.com! You can find a direct link on the home page on the navigation bar!
This post will explain to you some of the rules of the forum and how to access your account. If, after this post, you still cannot access your account or we have somehow missed creating a profile for you, please email me at austincycles@gmail.com.
Your account for the forums is made up of a couple bits of information. Your username is your first name, last initial, and the last 3 digits of your IMBA/SORBA membership number. Your password is your IMBA/SORBA membership number.

IMBA/ SORBA ID #: 123456

This is a Cape Fear SORBA only forum and we see no reason why anyone should be called anything but their real name. It should also help us cut back on the trash talk that has been a problem with other similar forums used by the Cape Fear Region in the past.

Hello everyone! This is just a reminder of a few upcoming events.
First, we have the big workday/club meeting that is scheduled for this Saturday at the Brunswick Nature Park. The workday will run from 9am to 5pm and we will be building the new beginner trail! Please bring rakes and shovels. Additional tools will be provided by Cape Fear SORBA. Remember to bring food for the day if you are planning on being out there all day. Don’t worry about it if you can only be out there for a few hours to! We would be happy to have you for as long as you can help! It all will help make this trail amazing!!
The workday will be followed by a club meeting with elections for the new year at the top of the agenda. The club will provide Hamburgers and Hotdogs but we need you to help us out by providing side dishes to supplement the meal!
DIRECTIONS
If coming from Wilmington, follow the signs across the bridge for US 17N/US 74. Take the exit for State Route 133/Southport/Oak Island and make a left off the exit ramp. Go approximately 7 miles and you will come to the Brunswick County Nature Park on your right. Enter the park and drive all the way to the very back where you will find a round parking lot across from a covered picnic shelter. That is the parking lot we will begin our day in. If you come later in the day someone will be stationed at either the parking lot or the picnic shelter to direct you.
CCORS Blue Clay Race April 17th
The other reminder is that on April 17th we will finally host out first race of the CCORS race series at Blue Clay! Details can be found at ecvelo.org.
The club is looking for volunteers for the event as well! We need people to help with timing, parking, event setup, and to be course marshals. Please email with the times that you are available to help to austincycles@gmail.com. It would be greatly appreciated!
We are hoping for a huge turnout folks, so don’t disappoint! If you have any questions please feel free to contact me!
