[edit] About Us
The Jersey Action Riders Mountain Bike Club (JAR) is a social and recreational mountain bike club based in southern New Jersey. Founded in May of 1997, JAR is an International Mountain Bicycling Association(IMBA) affiliated club and a chapter of the Jersey Off-Road Bicycle Association(JORBA). JAR is a part of a growing JORBA community which provides networking for riders to find new places to ride and new people to ride with. We participate in local trail maintenance programs, advocacy on local, national and international mountain biking issues, and most importantly ride all year round.
