The Pemberton Valley’s premiere mountain biking race returns May 3, 2025.
The Pemberton Off-Road Cycling Association (PORCA) and OneUp Components have partnered to provide a one-day enduro race. And while organizers promise a “blind format,” meaning no map will be provided to allow bikers to pre-ride the course, competitors can “expect approximately 40 kilometres of pedalling and between 1,800 and 2,000 metres of climbing.”
The decade-old race boasts challenging terrain, a gnarly course and breathtaking Pemberton scenery.
Sign-up for the event opens Monday, Feb. 3, at 7 p.m., with just 160 spots available.
In a Facebook post, PORCA reminded enduro hopefuls that last year’s tickets sold out within 10 minutes. A waitlist will be available.
To sign up, you’ll need a non-refundable PORCA membership. For adults (19 and up), the membership costs $60. For kids, $25.
The race itself costs $150 in addition to membership. A refund is on offer, minus a $20 processing fee, until Saturday, April 5. After that, refunds will only be considered on special terms like event cancellation or season-ending injuries.
Registration helps cover a mid-course food station, après food and beverages, a professional first-aid team, live timing and more.
