Organizer Resources

  • Promotion materials (logo, feature image).

Event Registration:

When choosing where to host your event registration, Cycling BC strongly recommends the CCNBIKES online registration platform.  Our Cycling BC staff are committed to making your event organizer experience as smooth and sustainable as possible. Using CCNBIKES helps us provide support before and after your event, as well as ensure compliance with the UCI, Cycling Canada, neighbouring PSOs/NSOs, and our insurance company. Since the system is tied to our annual membership, affiliation, and sanctioning process, using the system streamlines the experience for your event participants and volunteers. It also provides our staff and commissaires with the necessary information to support you. Please contact ben@cyclingbc.net to get started.

Event organizers using alternative registration platforms are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with Cycling BC’s event registration requirements for participant licence/insurance validation, start lists, club/team affiliations, and waivers. We strongly recommend organizers include instructions in their online registration experience (including their confirmation email) that prompt participants to complete any remaining actions necessary before participating. Here is a sample and a matrix of needs:

“Thank you for completing step 1 of registration for _______________.  Cycling BC sanctions this event as a __________ Sanctioned Event. As a result, all participants must hold a Cycling BC membership or complete the necessary online forms before participating. Please use the MATRIX below to ensure your documents are complete before attending the event. In case of an accident, report all accidents to Cycling BC at cyclingbc.net/accident. All participants and event staff are beholden to the Cycling BC Code of Conduct. If you have questions about this event, please get in touch with the Event Organizer or call Cycling BC at 604-737-3034.

At Mass-Participation Events:

  • Participants must either hold an active Cycling BC membership in good standing, or
  • Participants must visit cyclingbc.net/prospective and sign the Liability Release Waiver and Code of Conduct (There is no cost to this process. The organizer pays after the event).
