Ticket2Ride

What are your plans for the summer? Are you planning on taking 2 weeks off work, heading down to the med to blow all you hard earned on beer, burgers and bad souvenirs? Well maybe you are and good on you for it! However, have you ever thought about doing a little more? Now I guess a lot of you have, indeed I'm sure there are a lot of riders reading this now who do that little bit more and take their bikes down to the Alps, the Pyrenees etc and have a dam fine riding holiday. Well this year why not try a little bit more, how about trying Whistler?

Whether you can only take one week; have the opportunity to take two, three or even more, then British Columbia is the place to do it. This area of British Columbia just a 2 hour drive from Vancouver has all the mountain biking you could ever dream of and never have the time to fully experience!

No doubt you will have read it all in the magazines about how complete this corner of the world is for all styles of riding, whether its man made freeride trails featuring log rides, ramps, teetertotters, and skybridges (The Northshore!) or technical singletrack trails, which feature grueling climbs, wicked freeride descents, and incredible scenery (Squamish!) then British Columbia is surely for you? And of course we mustn’t forget "The Whistler Bike Park", offering a faster way to style your technique through the super quick access of its dedicated bike lifts and built tracks.

Perhaps you prefer something different, for example heli-assisted riding to enable you to ride 5 hours of swooping single track through over 6000ft of descents from glacial mountain tops into lush forest valleys! Or maybe a floatplane trip to ride some of the vast wilderness the area offers? You can even hang out in the home of the Grizzly's on our Bush Pilot camping tour!

Whatever kind of riding your into, you can aspire to the very best of it in the great British Columbia, and Ticket2RideBC are offering you the chance to ride it all.

Dropping a ladder in BC

We offer packages lasting from 1 week to 4 months and our prices start low. For example £275 for a weeks Basic Big Mountain package including 6 days breakfast, or £375 for 5 days guiding including 4x4 shuttle trips and 5 of 7 evening meals! If you decide to up your package to Gravity Singletrack (£675) then you'd better have a head for heights as you will be taking a heli-drop plus float-plane trip to get you up high into those pristine trails. Want to stay longer? A month's accommodation is just £625 or even less depending how long you stay!

If you want a combination of the services we offer then get in touch! We pride ourselves on being flexible and will do our up most to give you the bespoke holiday experience you are craving!
