"The nomination came as a huge surprise to me, what a wild ride! I suffered but in the best possible way.The event allowed me to visit riding communities in my province that I hadn't made the effort to get to yet, the small town receptions in Powell River was amazing. I made some great friends from around the world, having run a bike shop for 25 plus years I wasn't fully aware of the scope of family that's out there rolling sweet single track." ~ Mark Savard, Williams Lake, 2016 Winner

"The nomination for the KazLaw Community Award was a huge compliment. Words cannot express how thankful I am for the nomination and support from my friends, family, and the Squamish community.

Spending the evenings hanging out with racers from all over the world and sampling the local restaurants and pubs made the week even more memorable. BCBR should be on every mountain biker's bucket list." ~ Joel Harwood, Squamish, 2014 Nominee
