Advocacy (Trail Building, Maintenance & Construction): Our strong alliances with land managers help keep the trails you ride open to mountain biking, the most exhilarating way to keep minds alert, reflexes quick, and bodies in shape. Our volunteers design, develop, construct and maintain trails. Hundreds of volunteer hours have been completed at the Forsyth Central Park and Big Creek Roswell City Park.

Special Events: Scheduled RAMBO weekend and weekday rides. RAMBO Ride Coordinators constantly vary trail destinations so you will never lack for an interesting ride. Chapter trip destinations include such trails as Tsali, Bent Creek & DuPont in North Carolina, Tanasi & Racoon in Tennessee, Oak Mtn in AL, FATS in SC. We hold Chapter parties/cookouts where members can come together and share good times and great stories (and thanks to our GREAT bike shop sponsors, there's plenty 'o swag and give-a-ways)!!!
SORBA Mountain Bike Time Trials: This SORBA members-only competitions held at Big Creek Park, Roswell, Central Park in Forsyth and Chicoppee in Gainesville. Proceeds benefit RAMBO trail maintenance fund.
