Tom van Steenbergen - This Is Home - BIKE BIG WHITE

What an epic project to be apart of. Tom teamed up with our crew out at Bike Big White and we built this all time roaster of a line. (Catch the Big White section in the 2nd half of the edit.) The shear scale and vertical covered in this soon to be named trail is massive.

The Ruby Hill Bike Park Pre-Opening

Alpine Bike Parks is pleased to release that the 7 acre Ruby Hill Bike Park is in the final stages of completion.

The Ruby Hill Bike Park and loop trail features a series of terrain features specifically designed to promote a progressive riding and learning experience for novice riders up through expert riders. Alpine's scope of work included building highly specialized trails and riding features, jumps, pump tracks, drop zones, and custom rock features for developing riding skills in the bike park and along the loop trail in a stunning setting in Denver, Colorado. The project has spanned throughout the last year ensuring a trend-setting world class experience.

The Hamilton Ontario Pumptrack

Are pumptracks the future playgounds? The survey at the new Hamilton, Ontario pumptrack says: YES. The response to the Gage Bike Park Pumptrack has been immensely positive and the community that surrounds the park is the reason. The ecstatic community engagement in the beginning stages helped the project get off the ground and in the end dug a little deeper to make it a reality. Its a daunting thing for 3 youths to go to to their city council and ask for a bike park. But in Hamilton's case, this is what sparked the entire project.
