Join us this September for the RBC Whistler Gran Fondo in Whistler, BC.  Participants will be able to work through an iRide obstacle course with the help of iRide coaches, experience the fun of iRide, and win prizes.  This event is open to all ages.  Learn from our exciting iRide coaches and get stoked on riding better and faster than before!

Participants must be able to ride a 2-wheel bicycle without training wheels.  Participants can bring any style of bicycle and a helmet. If you are in need of a bicycle, we are happy to provide one (a suggested minimum height for an iRide rental bike is 4ft. tall).

Participants will receive a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Medal

Participants awaiting their session can draw and color on their name plate at the CBC iRide registration tent or practice in the closed practice area (supervised by Whistler Gran Fondo representatives).

  • Arts and crafts are also available at the Whistler Arts Council tent in the Olympic Plaza.
  • Strider bike participants and any other overflow participants can practice skills in the closed practice area.

All participants wishing to join the team for the annual photograph on stage will receive a free t-shirt.
