Harvey’s Ultimate Summer Trail!
We asked our resident MTB expert and Sales Assistant, Harvey, where his absolute favourite place to ride in the summer is... and he’s taking us a little bit further afield than our usual local tracks! 🌲🚴♂️
Say hello to Sun Peaks on the stunning west coast of Canada (British Columbia)! 🍁
If you’re looking for epic lift-access alpine riding, massive berms, and legendary dusty summer trails
