Video: The 2018 BC Bike Race Wrap-Up Film

Jan 21, 2019 at 12:59
by BC Bike Race  


BC Bike Race began as a vision from two passionate mountain bikers who wanted to share British Columbia's mountain biking culture with the world. What they created is a stage race that journeys through old growth forests and along coastal waterways. It is an event that is frequently referred to as 'the best week on a bike,' the main goal of which is to show everyone an incredible time; for them to leave happy, excited, and wanting to come back!

This past year, lead videographer Max Berkowitz, and his team captured the essence of the race through its three founding principals: community, racing, and singletrack. The amount of work, passion, and long hours that have been devoted to making this event happen year after year is immeasurable and would have been insurmountable without the efforts of trail builders, clubs, sponsors, partners, and our gracious hosts, the First Nations on whose land we ride and camp.

Congratulations to all the racers who became official BC Bike Race finishers during the 12th edition of the race. Sit back and enjoy this 2018 BC Bike Race edit.

 Did this in 2017, absolutely awesome. Best riding I've ever experienced and I yearn to go back! It was nice to meet and ride with like-minded people from so many different countries (Israel, Brazil, SA to name a few).
Really slick organisation and the crew who run it are fantastic.

 I was going to do the race this year but my riding partner had to have knee surgery. We have 2 entries up for sale including meal plans if any one is interested. Big discount off list price.

 The only problem I see with this video is; they will now have to run this race every other weekend to accommodate the number of potential entries.
