 Incredible work being done by this society. Definitely making the Cowichan valley a gem of the island in terms of riding. I've been a member for the past year and plan to continue for several years to come. Thanks for all the hard work and for constantly improving trails!

 The Stewardship Society, and Riley in particular have done, and continue to do, an excellent job in creating trails that are sympathetic to the environment, while being a joy to ride or hike.
Keep up the great work.

 OG North Shore rider here; just a quick note to say thank you, and that Xylem is easily the best climbing trail I have ever ridden. Mad respect.
