“THE RANCH” - Kamloops Mountain Bike Park

It’s been a long time in the making but 2005 will see the culmination of a lot of hard work by a lot of dedicated people. The KBRA (Kamloops Bike Riding Association) and the City of Kamloops have united in a joint effort to bring The Ranch to a reality.The DH/Freeride Trails


On the behalf of the KBRA and the City of Kamloops we would like to invite the mountain bike community to the Grand Opening of The Ranch scheduled for July 2nd and 3rd. Manufacture and retail tents will be set up, people from all aspects of the industry have been invited. Live music and food, good for the soul.

The BMX Track-B.C. Provincials opening weekend


Phase One of the Ranch includes a Jump Park, an “A-Line” type down hill track and a BMX track. One of the keys to success for our park is keeping moisture on the trails; we are working closely with the City of Kamloops and Toro to develop a solution to dust control. Phase Two and Three will be completed over the next several years with ongoing updates to the park, 6 down hill tracks, a 4X track and a feasibility study for lift access riding.

A big part of the success of The Ranch depends on volunteer work. Thousands of man hours have already gone into development. Special thanks to Curt Doyle, Matt Hunter, Dusrin Windross, Taylor Hollstedt and Kevin O’Brien. 21 volunteers took 2 days to build a 1,700 meter snake-rail fence. Also huge props to the Board of Directors of the KBRA and the City of Kamloops.
