All 2023 members enter the draw to win a Forbidden Druid V2!
Anybody who supports the trails by having a UROC membership in 2023 is directly contributing to the maintenance, upkeep, and development of the trails. All current UROC members in 2023 will automatically be entered into an open draw to win this outstanding bike from the Forbidden Bike Company.
It’s the new Druid GX FX, with SRAM’s brand new transmission, and this outstanding complete bike is up for grabs to one lucky UROC member. Forbidden Bike Company wanted to support our trail community and our world-class trails by donating this bike to encourage folks to buy a UROC membership, that’s pretty awesome and we’re stoked to be doing this for the third year running! The prize draw for the Druid will be in late November / Early December 2023 and we will notify you of the date, time, and place to attend the live draw.
If you are a trail user and not a member we encourage you, your friends, family, and buddies to contribute to the trails. Memberships start for as little as $15 for Junior to $30 for Adults. That’s less than 1cent a day to support the trails and you could win a $9 thousand dollar bike for that small contribution…join up today and be in it to win it!
Membership fees are used for trail access and management, maintenance and construction including our paid Trail Manager and Trail Crew, purchasing supplies and equipment, volunteer support, and leveraging grant opportunities with matching funds
Membership supports youth community programming like the After School Bike Club and Ride-Build-Ride, and subsidized race entry fees for youth.
Membership also allows you to participate in all UROC activities and events such as trail maintenance days, group rides and UROC race events throughout the calendar year and covers your insurance requirements for these events.
And members stay informed and up to date with email notification of UROC events, news and initiatives.
If you use the Cumberland trail network for riding, running, or walking please support trail access and maintenance and become a member of UROC!
Memberships are valid for the duration of a calendar year (January – December)

Your UROC membership directly supports the access agreement with the landowners for non-motorized trail use, youth and community mountain bike programming and trail work in the Cumberland network!
Here’s a great story about United Riders of Cumberland, the Village of Cumberland, and two forestry companies came together to create a forest access partnership. As a result of nearby forestry activities, URoC had the opportunity to access the forest and build a burgeoning new local mountain biking industry. Get your 2021 membership or donate here.
Check out this awesome video with CVAG (Comox Valley Art Gallery) Youth Media Project made to show the importance of supporting trail maintenance! Get your 2021 membership or donate here.
