We recently received some awesome video and photos from the BC Bike Race guys (Dean Payne, Andreas Hestler, Darren Butler and Connor Macleod) as they toured Jamaica and attended the Jamaica Fat Tire Festival.

BC Bike Race main man, Andreas Hestler explains, "Jamaica is an amazing place to escape to while the rain and snow hammer Vancouver and the trails at home in BC. It was as much about camaraderie and experiencing another culture as it was about escaping the foul weather of our dark BC winters."



Unable to resist the chance to be guided around the scenic wonders and cultural experience, the guys made the trip with great expectations. Hestler continues, "Mountain biking is an amazing connector - it brings people together and unites different cultures under one experience. We all share the same passion for exploration whether our backyard or abroad, mountain bikes are our vehicle of choice to take us into the wild and beyond."

For those of us who have never been there and for those of us who just might someday, here is a featured video and a few photos to tell the story of their mountain bike adventure!
