Flagler Area Biking SORBA's mission is to help create tri-county (St. Johns, Flagler, Volusia) area trails, bike paths, bike lanes; ensure their future use; heighten cycling safety awareness; organize group rides; protect the habitat contained within the bike trails and bike paths; build relationships with landowners and land managers; and provide an informative website for local riders.

SORBA Fall Fat Tire Weekend & Meetings
|
We are very excited to announce that we'll be hosting the SORBA Fall Fat Tire Weekend & Meetings this November 9th & 10th in DeLand, FL plus we're adding an extra day of riding on the 11th. We are rolling out the red carpet and inviting the 44 SORBA Chapters and all fellow mountain bikers to attend our event. We have just about locked in all the plans and venues, and we're stoked to share our trails with everyone. We will be featuring most of our trail systems: Spruce Creek, Chuck Lennon Park, Mala Compra and Moses Creek mountain bike trails with guided group rides. There will be something for everyone from beginner to double diamond trails to suit all rider skill levels!
What would a biking event be without great socials with band, beer and food? DeLand's local brewery, Persimmon Hollow, is generously helping us out in the beer department. There will of course be demos, vendors, swap market and raffles. Remember to bring the family - there'll be plenty to do around here for the ones that don't ride. For a more detailed schedule, click on the above registration button. We are looking forward to seeing all of you this coming November! |

Our club presented a check to the Flagler County Board of Commissioners that symbolized the volunteer hours saved at Mala Compra Green Way Trail in the County. We were able to save the county $13,248.00 in just one year.
FABS Helps Camp Boggy Creek
With the help of the Florida Bicycle Association and The Bicycle Doctor of Bunnell, we were able to donate these 6 Trek bikes to Camp Boggy Creek. This camp is for children with serious illnesses and their families to reach beyond their illness ...and discover joy, confidence and a new world of possibilities and is always free of charge. They were extremely gracious and very happy to receive the bikes to be used in the camp and then gave us a terrific tour of their facility. It is just amazing what they do there! Go to www.boggycreek.org and see how you can help them too.
