In 2027, BC Bike Race evolves, adding an ENDURO EXPERIENCE. No squeezing yourself into a set of bib shorts for this one. Bring your baggies, knee pads and full face helmet because it’s about to get rowdy!

On a separate course from our XC racers, you’ll take on 4-5 timed stages per day across 30-45km of the best trails our host communities have to offer.

“The addition of Enduro is just the latest in our continual evolution over 20 years. We started with 100km days on mostly gravel roads on bikes that are now in museums. The sport is constantly changing and so are we.”

-Dean Payne, BC Bike Race President

THE DESTINATIONS

Whistler. Squamish. Cumberland. North Cowichan. Five days racing across some of the most sought-after trail networks in the world, each one a different flavour of riding.

THE FERRY

Midweek, the race crosses the Salish Sea to Vancouver Island. Catch your breath, grab a beer, watch for whales. It’s the kind of mid-race moment you don’t get anywhere else.
