Thanks Scott. We came up with a new twist for our Mountain bike team. Erik's is going to pay for the membership of all Erik's Mountain Team members to join MORC. We are also working on a way to create incentives for the team to get out and help with trail maintenance.

Yay! :banana: Thank you!

I like seeing people hooked on MORC -- as far as vices go, it's a great one to push.

How much do you pay your good techs?

I'm sending an email, but I thought I'd also post in case others had the same questions...

I'm assuming these are full-time positions (401k and insurance)?

Are there part-time opportunities available?

Are there seasonal opportunities available?

Thanks,
Pete

-We are hiring for some PT positions. We prefer FT but certainly make exceptions.
-Benefits are for FT employees.
-Seasonal works quite well for us. Usually March-September is ideal.

Thanks

I just saw Libby's email. This is great to see Erik's continued support of mountain bike advocacy, and MORC more specifically.

Thanks!

Wages at Erik's are competitive with the market. We also offer other incentives to our staff to help support their participation in the sport.
