We’re riders, just like you. We roll out as often as we can. Fortunately for us, we’re based in Nelson BC, smack dab in the middle of the West Koots. For us, adventure is right outside the door. We’re lucky and trust me, we know it!
The Kootenays are home to some of the best riding ANYWHERE. Rider’s are always looking for the next best experience and this region delivers. There are some of the most picturesque and twisty paved rides. Or if dirt and gravel is more your thing, there are spectacular routes and mountains to explore.
