Hey members! We have some fun events coming up in the next few weeks. Get all the details in this month’s newsletter.

CYCLOCROSS IS BACK

First up is Shuswap Cross! Part of the BC Interior Cyclocross series, this event will be held on Sunday, September 11th at Klahani Park. See details below. Register online or on race day.

BC BIKE RACE

Then, on September 18th, BC Bike Race will be making a stop in Salmon Arm for a big 50 km day sending riders up 1900 m of climbing. You can still register here for the six-day race.

Not ready to race? The organizers are also looking for on-course volunteers for marshalling and cheering, volunteers for course set up in the days leading up to the race, and again for course tear down following the race. For more info or to volunteer, please contact Chris Stromgren at [email protected].

Here’s a notice from BC Bike Race to the local community:

Dates have been announced for this fall’s Go By Bike Weeks! The event will run from October 3rd to October 16th this year. Register at gobybikebc.ca, ride your bike and get a chance to win some great prizes.

FAT BIKING

Back-to-school has us thinking about the colder months… and about fat biking! Our volunteers are planning on grooming the trails again this year for everyone’s enjoyment.
