Just announced!
Alberni Valley Riders are pleased to announce their upcoming Marathon on Sunday June 6th at Sproat Lake. This marathon length course includes The Lazer Shark, which is a brand new trail born from the fires of Hell! Don’t expect to enjoy it while you are riding it, but the memories of it will haunt you for the rest of your life! It is perfectly suited for a fully rigid single speed 29er or a DH bike. Bring your toe spikes and bibs and make sure that you are well caffeinated!
15km loop, 4 hour bell lap format – like a 12 hour only shorter
What better place to spend a late spring weekend than in the Alberni Valley!
