Last weekend, the 2015 BC Bike Race came to a close. The iconic mountain bike stage race in British Columbia sits apart from many stage races on the international calendar. It’s not known for long climbs, remote locations, or pasta parties. It’s known instead for being an iconic mountain bike experience, one where the quality of the singletrack is only trumped by the race organisation and friendly crew. If ever there’s a race to say it’s about ‘the vibe’ then it’s BC Bike Race. Except of course, it’s also about the ride. And the trails!

This year, Katerina Nash and Tristan Uhl took out the open women’s and men’s categories respectively.

We’ve got a feature on the race coming out in our next issue, by Aussie ripper Garry Millburn, but here’s a gallery from some of our favourite shots from the race. Yes it’s dark, and yes there are lots of trees.
