IrishDH will be giving away a FSF/Comfortably Numb holiday package complete with lift pass and bike hire in conjunction with the Ticket to Ride BC over the few weeks.....

What you have to do is simple. Send us an e-mail, telling us about your best biking experience. It doesn't need to be anything epic... just a good story about what your best experience is. The best entries will be posted on the site, with an external panel deciding the winner!

Ticket2RideBC Ltd started operations in 2003 inspired by the diversity of riding, lifestyle and culture of the mountain biking community in Whistler, BC. Over the past 2 years under the guidance of Scott Lanzi, the company has evolved exponentially and now offers a whole array of holiday packages including all inclusive 5 day tours, bespoke fully guided holidays, season stays as well as custom trips. We have a large cast of guides and a fleet of vehicles waiting to rise to your occasion. All of the trips are designed for the mountain bike enthusiast, newbie to advanced.

It’s your holiday so let them take the strain and organise it for you. They will look after your every riding whim, show you the best trails, teach you new skills or let you loose to do your own thing. Whatever your choice you’ll achieve something special in Whistler.

Our lead guides are qualified Canadian Mountain bike Instructors (CMIC) some from the UK and some living locally in Whistler. They've been doing this for a number of years - and with this experience comes local trail knowledge.

Also this summer, Ticket2RideBC will have Irish local lad Glyn O'Brien on hand all summer, living, guiding and as he'll be holding his First Tracks Guiding from Ticket to Ride Headquarters.

T2RBC are passionate about mountain biking and having fun. We know the best local trails in and around Whistler,Pemberton & Squamish so we will ensure you get the riding you came for and lots of it. We're not one of those last minute slapstick holiday companies trying to cash in on the new Whistler riding 'phenomenon' either - we moved here for the riding years ago and our motivations remain the same.

We ride & have ridden for years in the UK too - our guides range from XC national champs to DH racers - we understand UK riders and how you can make the most of your holiday in Canada.

T2RBC are also the Iron Horse official North American demo/rental centre for 2005.
