Island Mountain Rides provides a professional mountain bike guiding service on one of the most beautiful islands in the world. Come and visit us for a mountain biking experience that you will not forget. IMR is based in Cumberland, BC which is quickly becoming Vancouver Island’s riding Mecca. If mountain biking is your religion then a pilgrimage to Cumberland is a must! Cumberland boasts a wide va

riety of trails right out the back door in it’s neighboring forests. Cumberland is centrally located on the Island and is the perfect place to access the trails of other areas, such as; Forbidden Plateau/Comox Lake, Hornby Island and Campbell River. IMR is proud to be allied with the Riding Fool Hostel, a purpose built, recreation focussed accommodation that is located in the heart of Cumberland. The Riding Fool is the perfect place to base your riding vacation and to relax following a ride. Located in the same building is the local pro-shop, Dodge City Cycles.

Some Spring maintenance at the Pinecrest Bike Park. Really rewarding to clean up and define the jumps and berms. Doesn’t it look amazing with the grass bordering the dirt!?!? If you want a nice place to do some jumps and pump some rollers and turns, go and check it out! Thanks for helping make this look nice. πŸ€˜πŸΎπŸš²πŸŒ²πŸŒ±πŸ˜Šβ˜€οΈ

We’ve been working on a nice little project up in Campbell River lately for the Some reroutes and maintenance on the upper section of the Riley Lake Trail and the start of Rabbit 🐰 Hole. It has been a battle against red rot and knee to waist deep organic at times, but we are slowly winning. Photos are of our most recent finished section. A hard surface, sustainable trail that still has exposed roots and rocks embedded. It’s always a learning experience and a journey around every corner. Looking forward to getting back out there again this week! Thanks to and .gouldd for hacking away out there with me.
