The iconic ladder bridges of the North Shore are some of the most recognizable trail features in adventure tourism today. Bike Magazine recently recognized North Vancouver as “one of the most influential bike destinations in the world”.
“The legendary North Shore has played a big part in the development of the global mountain biking history and connecting the circle route of this history from North Vancouver to Whistler just makes sense. ” said BC Bike Race president Dean Payne. “We want to offer our participants the ride of their lives!” The North Shore is changing, under the trail stewardship of Mark Woods and the NSMBA (North Shore Mountain Bike Association); the building style is new school with lots of ‘pump and flow’. This has made the trail access much more universal and the riding experience that much better. Stage 2 will take place in Cumberland, stage 3 in Powell River and from there the course will remain mostly the same as the previous editions; the Sunshine Coast, Sechelt, stage 4 and 5, Squamish, stage 6 and Whistler the final day, stage 7. BC Bike Race would like to thank Campbell River for being an amazing partner over the last three years. Their excellent handcrafted trails have provided thousands of riders from over 35 countries with a mind-blowing singletrack experience. More about Campbell River here. BC Bike Race will continue into its 3rd year with the Enduro special segments, 2 per day and the 4 Shimano kids races: North Vancouver, Cumberland, Sechelt and Squamish. The new course in North Vancouver will be announced in the early spring.More info: www.bcbikerace.com
