Gravel roads are nice. Pavement is fine. But the real bicycle magic happens in the forest and on the trail.

Throwback Thursday - Guess the 2011 Ocup locations in the photos? Fun fact - Chico Racing organised six Plastiglas Ontario Cup MTB Races, two 24-Hour events (Solstice and Hot August Nights), an Epic 8-Hour, and Crank the Shield in 2011. Looking forward to the Spring Epic 8 and 24 Hours of Summer Solstice in 2026.

Very sad to hear about Steve Snodden. A great supporter of mountain biking, communities and a generous man. Condolences to his family and friends.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Steve Snoddon. We cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work, unwavering support, and countless hours of volunteering he dedicated to the DMBA and our community. Steve’s impact will be felt for years to come. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends during this difficult time.
