Hornby Island is the best.

So awesome to have so many of our team riders out for the @islandcupseries #4 Enduro of the season! The youth were out in force and having a blast while they charged hard. Some excellent results all around, nice work team 🙌

Being able to camp at the Strachan Farm and ride and race all from one venue is pure magic. Major thanks to Tig Cross for being the man for all things riding and racing on Hornby. Thank you @himba.hornby for all your work on the course and manning the event, it went off so well 🤌

Thanks to @scottrmitchell and the @islandcupseries for everything you do to make our local race scene 11/10.

Last but not least thanks to all our race parents and families that put in so much effort to make these away races happen. You know who you are 🙌 by @nolanriding

Stoked to certify 7 new @gsmountainbikecoaches coaches over the weekend! This course was a little different though.

Always awesome helping grow the sport, but extra special when all the people in the course are athletes I've been coaching for many years. Some of them since 2017 (see last couple pictures).

Watching them grow up over the years and develop into talented riders and athletes, and just in general outstanding young people is such a cool experience.

Now they're all at the point where they want to inspire the next generation of young riders, share their passion for MTB, and step into leadership roles.

I'm truly amazed at where this sport is going. The level of riding and talent emerging these days is off the charts. And I know this crew will continue shaping the sport for years to come!

So proud of you all 🙌 taken in Jordie Lunn Bike Park by @nolanriding

Henry is off to race for Canada again, this time as a selected athlete for team Canada at World Champs in Val Di Sole Italy. But he needs a little bit of help from the community (link in bio).

Being a Canadian and racing World Cups means unless you are on a full factory sponsorship team, you are a privateer which means you are self funding everything!

Henry works and attends school, and trains all year round. He is truly one of the best riders to have come from Vancouver Island from his generation, and I believe he is going to make it to a full factory team in the near future.

He's been having an incredible run so far this season, including taking the win at a Continental Cup in Guatemala and landing on multiple podiums at the Dunbar Canada Cups, and recently just snagged P9 at the Crankworx DH in a field stacked with world cup pros.

If you are able to support him at all with a donation, it's going to a Canadian kid trying to make it to the very top level of DH racing internationally. Thanks for taking the time to read and share!

Epic riding trip on the weekend with @s.s.funship and @nolanriding hitting 3 insane riding locations by boat!
📍Hornby Island ➡️📍Sunshine Coast ➡️📍Powell River
This was a pilot trip that @nolanriding and @s.s.funship will be offering in 2027. If you’re interested or have any questions on the experience feel free to hit me up 🤙🏼. But hopefully these clips show some of the fun you can expect 🤟🏼

There’s no better way to experience the West Coast than by bike and by boat.

On Saturday I had the opportunity to guide the Funship crew around Mount Mahony, welcoming an incredible group of riders… including a few Vancouver Island legends.

The Funship is such a unique concept! Connecting riding destinations across the Salish Sea by boat, turning the journey itself into part of the adventure. From saltwater crossings to fresh loam, rugged coastline to world-class singletrack, it’s an experience you won’t find just anywhere.

As a local guide, it’s something I’m incredibly proud to be part of. Sharing Powell River’s trail network, local history, and hidden gems with visiting riders is exactly why I started Mahony Bike Co.

If you’ve ever wanted to experience Mount Mahony the way the locals do, let’s make it happen.

Boat. Bikes. Beers. What more do you want?
