Membership - Join Today

STRENGTH IN NUMBERS!

Joining the Okanagan Trail Riders Association helps support & develop your riding areas and your right to ride.

Members of the club have been actively involved in the LRMP (Land Resource Management Plan) process which has secured thousands of hectares of riding area near Bear Creek. This area is now designated as a motorized recreation area with an emphasis on Motorcycles. Without involvement by local riders, this would not have happened. Work is now underway to gain funding to make improvements to trails in Bear Creek.

Memberships are inexpensive ($20: Individual, $40: Family) and are based on a calendar year (Jan 1 - Dec 31)

We are in the process of working together with several Clubs throughout BC to offer an "OTRA Associated Membership" so thatmembers of other Clubs can support Bear Creek and be a part of the Trail Riders without the need for paying for a second full priced membership.

The Clubs we currently offer this arrangement with are:

  • Southern Okanagan Dirtbike Club (SODBC)

Why is my membership important?
Strength in numbers: when the Club deals with Government and other important groups we need to have member numbers behind us. We know riders are out there but we need to show that they support our causes, which are securing and improving our riding areas as well as providing a variety of riding experiences.

What kind of rider do I have to be to join?
Club activities are for a variety of different levels and types of riders, from beginners to experts, Trail Riders to Dual Sporters. Families, Women and Men are all encouraged to join and be active with the Club.

What else does my membership get me?

  • Club activities: Events range from Awareness Days and riding Clinics to Poker Runs and Races. Club members also organize trips to other riding areas, both as Dual Sport and as Dirt Bike getaways. See our event calendar for more information on upcoming events.
  • Club Newsletters & updates: will be emailed  to you throughout the year
  • The chance to meet other riders: Joining the Club and coming to any of the meetings or events gives you the opportunity to meet others who enjoy your sport.
  • Monthly Meetings: For those who wish to attend you have the ability to provide strong input for your desires and visions. For those who are unable to attend you have the ability to email in your items of interest which could then be brought forward at the next meeting on your behalf.
  • Discounts: Generally, an OTRA membership will help you get a 10~15% discount off at many local dealers.

Give Something Back to the Sport you enjoy! Strength in numbers.
