Today we picked up our race number, some swag and our race bag, which we will need to use to transport everything we need for the week from stage to stage (sleepingbag, clothes, tools,....) We can say already that the race is excellent organized!
Glenn really came into the mood when he saw some of the MTB babes!! We are all getting excited to start the race!!!
Tomorrow we will attend the press conference where they will present some of the pro's.

Today is also Canada day, a big parade and fire work are on the program. Tonight, we'll grab some last cold beers before the race week begins.
WOW, it's gonna be FUN!!!

After a week of road tripping the Mountain Madness team came back together in North Van to prepare for the race.
We enjoyed the beautiful nature and landscapes (see pics below) but are now focusing on our main objective : completing BC Bike race.
Just got back from a delicious seafood dinner with some local Shimano family members (Darren, Kelly, their new baby and Ben).
Tomorrow we pick up our race number and other stuff..........

We spend these 7 days to relax and enjoy beautiful Canada!
We traveled on Icefield Parkway, Alberta, the most beautiful road in Canada.
This is the route to over one hundred visible glaciers, turquoise lakes, rushing waterfalls and numberous hiking trails. We saw black bears, big horn sheeps, moose, marmots and many mosquito's. We were lucky with the weather, the glaciers were shining in the sun and the rocks were glistening in a rainbow of colours. We went for a few short rides on the bike and it felt good....!!

Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen Hello everybody,

today we had our first test ride on Canadian ground.
Kamloops Bike Ranch offers nice bumpy trails with steep sections downhill.
Weather is unstable but we were lucky during the ride! Lots of fun.

After the ride we celebrated Lievens' birthday with a nice diner.

Now early to bed and we hope to get rid of the jetlag.

Sleep tight!

BC Bike Race (BCBR) is a seven day mountain bike stage race operated in and around the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada.  The BC Bike Race claims to have the most singletrack riding of any similar multi-day race.
More than 500 bikers from around the world get to spend a week riding the spectacular trails of BC.  The race covers around 340km and not surprisingly some truly breathtaking sights.
ItÂ’s a week of climbing, descending, roots, rocks, black bears, bridges and ferries. It will be a journey filled with hard work, emotional ups and downs and true dedication.
Throwing ourselves into the deep end of mountain biking and the personal challenge/triumph is what this week will be all about.  
We will try to do a daily update with pictures and report. Enjoy it!!
