Race Details:

The 2026 BC High School Mountain Bike Championship, set in the rugged trail networks of Quesnel, brings together the fastest and most driven young riders in the province for a no-nonsense test of fitness, skill, and race-day execution.

Quesnel delivers the kind of terrain that defines BC riding—fast, raw singletrack, punchy climbs, and technical sections that reward precision and punish hesitation. This is honest racing, where lines matter, pacing is everything, and every lap counts.

At the core of the championship is Cross-Country (XC)—the backbone of high school racing. Lap-based, high-intensity, and deeply tactical, XC pushes riders to balance power, efficiency, and bike handling under pressure. Multiple categories ensure broad participation, while the front of the race showcases the province’s emerging elite.

Off the course, the event carries the unmistakable energy of the BC riding community. Teams roll in from across the province, pits are buzzing, and the atmosphere blends competition with progression—where first-time racers line up alongside seasoned contenders chasing a provincial title.

Organized by BC School Sports in collaboration with regional partners including Cycling BC and the local Quesnel trail community, the championship is built on a foundation of athlete development, fair competition, and long-term growth of the sport.

Supported by a network of committed sponsors and industry partners, the event is powered by brands that believe in the future of mountain biking—from grassroots trail advocacy to performance equipment at the highest level. Their backing helps elevate the event experience, support school programs, and create a clear pathway for young riders progressing through the sport.
