Craig got into mountain biking about 6 years ago, soon after he discovered biking he started working at a bike shop in Nanaimo, which converted what started as a hobby into a bit of an obsession. Now he works as a full-time mechanic at Riders, and when he is not wrenching he can likely be found on his downhill bike at Mt. Prevost or Mt. Tzouhalem. Lately, he has been having a blast trying to ride downhill on his Santa Cruz Blur.

Cam is a born and raised Victorian. Cam has been riding bikes ever since he can remeber. He started by racing Cross Country bikes, but soon after he started to have interest in freeride and downhill. After trying his hand at Freeride for a while he became interested in Road Racing and the speed it comes with. Now he has many bikes and loves to ride all types of disiples. Cam started wrenching when he was a little kid, taking apart the shifters of his bikes, with no idea how to put them back together. Now , 20 years later, he is a fully fledged service tech. Cam’s nickname is Super C, from the above photo is should be obvious why.

Unlike a couple of Chris’ co-workers he likes to keep both his wheels on the ground and has been doing so for 15 years when he started commuting.
Actually Chris was into bikes in the early 70′s when he went halfers with his sister on a red BRC ten speed with stem shifters.
Chris has always been into the transportation side of cycling by getting out and exploring his environment on two wheels.
In 2010 he participated in the Ride to Conquer Cancer riding from Vancouver to Seattle.
Retiring in 2011, Chris attended The United Bicycle Institute in Ashland Oregon where he took the Professional Repair and Shop Operation course. After returning home for a couple of weeks he then set off on a solo self supported cross Canada trip on his Trek 520.
and probably others after working at Rider’s Cycles for a while.
Chris is into; Vinyl, local beer, exploring greater Victoria by bike, house renos, food, people.
