Hobart’s getting a new mountain bike park on the eastern shore, you’d better be bloody stoked! The Glenorchy MTB Park is a great facility with some awesome trails, and host a lot of excellent events (08 SS Nats anyone?). The new park is rumoured to be bigger and better, and now it’s time for you to have your input!
Here’s what Frenchy’s got to say on the PedalBite forums:
As many of you know, there is a new mountain bike park planned for the Meehan Range on the Eastern Shore. The park has been in the planning stages for the last year or so, and has finally reached a stage where we need to present the proposal to the riding community for their thoughts. I have prepared a draft plan and will be presenting this and discussing the proposed site. This will also allow me to take feedback from people, so this is your chance to put your ideas forward. At the meeting I will also be compiling a mailing list so you can be kept up to date on the project. A volunteer register will also be compiled. I encourage everyone to get along and get involved in what will be biggest mountain bike project ever in Tasmania. Meeting dates are as follows:
VENUE: Rosny Library meeting room 1
DATE: Wednesday February 6
TIME: 6:00PM- 7:00PMI will provide drinks and snack food,
see you all there,Frenchy

Get involved and help get this park up and running and kicking arse. A massive amount of work goes into projects like this, so the more people who show their appreciation, the better! We’re damn lucky there are people out there building these parks and trails for us to ride.
