SUMMER CAMP FOR ADULTS
​
​
Trans BC is a 6 day all-inclusive enduro event that literally feels like a bike summer camp for adults. You can come solo and instantly meet 100+ new friends or come with a group of buddies. Regardless, all you have to do is show up and shred bikes for a week, while we take care of all the rest of the details. It's 'blind' racing, so you only find out the trails we are riding/racing when you arrive at the event.
We do all the work for you:
-
Hand select the best of the best trails in all the regions we visit
-
Grab you from the airport
-
Transport you to and from the trails everyday
-
Feed you 3 meals a day plus on course food stations
-
Provide you with a beer garden to finish each day in
-
Provide you with hotel accommodation for 7 nights
-
and the list goes on
​
While you get to:
​
-
Push your limits and challenge yourself on new terrain each day
-
Explore areas of BC that you might not ever get to on your own
-
Tick off an item on your bucket list
-
Party train with your buddies down some of the best trails in BC
-
All in a super chill relaxed enviornment
​
We say its more like a summer camp then a 'race', as about 90% of the people there are just there for the adventure and good times and aren't counting the seconds on their results printout each day, which really helps create an incredibly fun vibe all week long
ACCOMMODATION​
​
​
-
One of the best parts about Trans BC (besides the sweet trails), is that you get to sleep in an ACTUAL BED! Sure tents are great, but beds are better!
-
You will be put up for 7 nights in Hotel Accommodation - Twin Share
-
Meaning if you come with a buddy we will pair you with your buddy to share a room
-
If you come solo, then we pair you with another solo rider to share a 2 x Queen Bed room with
-
If you come as a couple, you will get your own room with a Queen or King Bed
-
If you come as a group of 3, we also have rooms that can cater to this to keep you all together
location​
​
-
We are still working on the region and locations we will be hitting for 2025
-
We hope to have this confirmed and announced by October 1, 2024 with registration opening most likely November 1
-
We don't disclose the actual trail networks we use until you arrive at the event as its 'blind' racing after all so it's a surprise for everyone!
FOOD​
​
You will be provided 3 meals a day - plus at least 1 x mid course food station.
​
-
Hot buffet breakfast for each day of the event
-
Lunch at the finish line each day consists of either a wrap, sandwich bun, burger or similar based on the towns and locations of finishing
-
Hot buffet dinner each evening, including arrival day and the final day of the event where awards are held after the final dinner
-
We cater to most dietary requirements - be sure to select your dietary needs on the reg form when registering
-
We aim to provide some good protein and meat selections along with several salad and vege choices as we know you guys like to eat well, a lot but also healthy!
-
You will see at least 1 x Mid Course Food Station per day. This food station is fully stocked with things like: apples, bananas, oranges, watermelon, candy and more candy, muffins, bars, chips, cookies, nuts and the list goes on. Some days we also have sandwich platters. And over course water and electrolyte.
TRANSPORT​
​
We provide airport transfer at each event. Based on what region the event is in for a given year, the closet major airport will be chosen for you to fly in and out of and we will be sure to pick you up and return you after the event. There is only 1 x Coach pick up time so once we give you the details after you register, then you book your flights based on the time frames you need to arrive by. Sometimes it does require you flying in a day early if there are no flights that align with the pickup time. More details are given in the first update after registering
MID COURSE SHUTTLES OR CHAIRLIFT​
​
-
Some days you get the luxury of getting a mid course shuttle or shuttle to the start (up rougher roads) or a chairlift to start the day
-
These shuttles and lifts are included in your registration package INCLUDING those on the Self Support Package

course & Skill level​
​
** questrial with 0.05 spacing and 1.3 line spacing
​
Trans BC is a 6 day enduro event where the descents are timed but the transitions and climbs are not timed. Here are some average details of what to expect:
-
Expect to be out on course for 4-6hrs a day
-
Average 25-40km per day
-
1200-1500m of climbing per day
-
Note: don't take the distance lightly. 30km in BC can be very different from say 30km in Colorado or California. The climbs here are steeper and slower and with some hike a bikes thrown in some years, it's even slower moving!
-
Also Note: Based on the locations used, there could be some hike a bikes involved
-
You have to be a solid single black trail rider. Most trails each day are rated black trails, some easier and some harder
-
There are some blues each day too but also some higher end blacks
-
The harder trails are not usually hard the entire stage/trail, but you will for sure come across a good amount of sections and snippets within the stages that will challenge you. Some will be above your level but you can choose just to walk or most also surprise themselves and end up riding things in the moment that they never thought they would have before. That's the joy of Trans BC!
