Board

Bryan joined SCMBC in 2019 and was appointed as our Springwater/Barrie Rep later that year and has been an active member volunteering at trail builds as well as club social. His major focus to date has been the development and ongoing improvement of the Hickling Tract. 

His favourite SCMBC trail to ride is Slessor/Silver Creek. Other favourite trails include Hickling with Horseshoe's State of Flow as a close second. 

Lance has been an active member with SCMBC for 5 years and for the last year as our Vice President. With all of the beautiful flowing trails it was hard for Lance to choose a favourite. He loves Creeks in the winter on some nicely groomed white ribbon. 

He has always lived his life in hopes that it brings more ups than downs, the exact opposite is how he feels about MTB trails. 

Lance's future club goals: continue to watch this club grow, but my main goal is to get more young kids and families out riding together. 

Fast Freddy they call him. Local shredder and one hell of a dedicated trail builder. Fred truly loves this community. It is said that trail building is contagious and you catch it from this guy! If he's not building a berm, he's likely living it up on his Pivot Firebird 29! Descending flow trail his style and sure digs tech and rock. Fast Freddy's favorite SCMBC trails are Breedon and Orillia for the berms and the Flow. His favorite ride destinations, Kingdom Trails and Victory Hill Vermont.

Shawn joined SCMBC in 2016 and was drawn to the MTB scene, building, riding, and socializing. In 2020 his family moved to Sugar Bush to be as close to the trails as possible and today, Tristin and Shawn have two sweet little girls, Tenley who loves riding shotgun on the MTB and future shredder Sloane!

2022 brought more changes as Shawn traded in his city job for a job close to home (and the trails!) This has allowed him to get more involved with SCMBC. Please welcome Shawn as our East Oro Rep!

His favourite local trail: ripping out his front door to Tustin, Crawford, Arbour, and into Hutch and beyond. It makes for a flowy Thunder Run. Shawn loves berms and rollers on many trails.

David was a rider and member of SCMBC for many years and in 2020 started building trails.  His favouite trail? "I should say Hickling since this is my region but I really enjoy Creeks Favourite Trail."

David loves to ride smooth and flowy trails. 

David's future club goals: continuing the work started by Bryan on fostering shared responsibility for trail maintenance and building our awesome Hickling loop. He hopes to see a groomer located in the Springwater region in the near future and would like to investigate future trails in the Springwater region when new trail building is permitted by the county again.
