Island Cup XC Mountain Bike Race

The River City Cycle Club is excited to introduce a NEW course for 2025 featuring adaptive flow trail Tres Hombres! We’ve opened a new adaptive loop thanks to Destination Development BC funding! This course has a down country feel with improved passing opportunities that will put a smile on your face! The 11.5km course will consist of 30min short laps with a 250m climb & descent.
During the race, we encourage spectators to bring noisemakers & cheer on the participants as they blaze through the Lost Lake lot.
