The BVMBA does not organise group rides or lead guided rides. However a number of local riders get together to ride on Wednesday evenings and they welcome newcomers to the area to join them. Please arrive with a little time to spare and be ready to ride at the times indicated in the schedule below.
On most Wednesdays, local BowValley riders meet up for a group ride. The trail is decided according to the level of the riders that show up that night, but most often is intermediate.
Below is a general schedule that riders can reference. Rides are often weather dependent and this schedule is subject to change. You are encouraged to bring along standard bear safety gear (bear spray, whistle or bell, a good set of lungs, Bear Aware knowledge) and bike repair tools etc. Enjoy the trails!
Please Note : This schedule is from 2009 and will likely change for 2010
