Welcome Rocky Mountain Bicycles and Shimano!

BC Bike Race is proud to partner with both Rocky Mountain Bicycles and Shimano! We are looking forward to an exciting 2010 race and are thrilled to have two great companies on board.

Participants and the general public will have the opportunity to demo Rocky Mountain bikes, have their Rocky Mountain bikes tuned up by factory mechanics, and hang out with Rocky Mountain team racers vying for the 2010 BC Bike Race title. “We’re coming with some of our best racers and some new technology up our sleeves.

Challenge vs. Epic

We at BC Bike Race have an inclusionary philosophy; we want everyone to be able to enjoy the ‘Ultimate Singletrack Experience’. Like Half Ironmans and Half Marathons, we believe that the ‘Challenge’ will enable more people to participate in the BCBR and ultimately get out to the woods and ride their bikes. Epic or Challenge, averaging 60km/day or 30km/day, we are still seven days of sweet mountain bike singletrack. Everyone should be able to reach their goals and achieve something great every year.
