SUMMARY:Smith Creek Chainless Race
DESCRIPTION:Smith Creek Chainless Race is a charity event in support of Adaptive Adventures.  \nThe Smith Creek Chainless Race is a downhill mountain bike race aimed at a stress-free environment with max fun potential! Participants will pedal to the top of the Smith Creek Trail Network in West Kelowna\, BC\, where the chain on their bike will be removed. They will then race back down the designated trail to the bottom while trying to set the fastest time they can. \nOnly the downhill portion is timed. \nAbout the fundraiser:\nAdaptive Adventures has been something I’ve seen around the valley for some time now. I have friends who have been out on some adventures with them and they provide such an incredible service for a community that typically has so many barriers in front of them. The team at Adaptive Adventures do an incredible job of removing these barriers with the specialized adaptive equipment the have. \n

SUMMARY:Kris Yip Memorial Fondo
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nThe Kris Yip Memorial Fondo is more than just a ride—it’s a celebration of cycling in the spirit of Kris. \nWhile timing services are provided using number plates and timing chips to track and identify riders for safety\, this event is not a race. It’s an opportunity for cyclists of all levels to come together in an inclusive atmosphere that values sportsmanship\, camaraderie\, and the joy of riding. Whether you enjoy pushing your limits with friendly competition or prefer a more leisurely pace to soak in the scenery\, the choice is yours. Ride at your own pace\, challenge yourself\, or simply enjoy the journey—all while honouring Kris’s legacy of making cycling welcoming and fun for everyone. \nThe Kris Yip Memorial Fondo is proudly organized by the Kris Yip Memorial Foundation\, dedicated to honouring Kris’s – kindness\, sportsmanship\, and inclusivity. Our mission is twofold: to promote the joy of cycling and to raise awareness about the importance of heart health\, particularly among athletes. \n  \n width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"> \nFor event details and to register\, visit https://www.krisyipmemorialfondo.ca/ \n\nAbout Kris \nBorn and raised in Prince George\, Kris was deeply embedded in our community\, both through his passion for cycling and his financial management business. Tragically\, Kris’s untimely passing on January 18\, 2023\, was sudden and unexpected\, a result of advanced coronary artery disease. Despite being an elite athlete\, he faced an invisible enemy with no warning signs. The mission is to ensure that Kris’s legacy shines on\, raising awareness about heart disease and reminding everyone that it can affect anyone\, regardless of their fitness level. \nThis event has a dual purpose: fostering community ties via cycling and amplifying the significance of heart health care in Northern BC. \nPlease consider donating to the Kris Yip Memorial Fund through the Prince George Community Foundation.
