iRide Glenridge p/b Glenridge Gorillas

Hello! I’m Mike Rauch and over the past 4 seasons, my team of iRide Instructors and I have enjoyed helping kids in the Abbotsford area master new skills, build confidence, make friends, and gain an appreciation for the challenges of outdoor exercise.

Our 2021 autumn program, Glenridge Gorillas p/b iRide, will be 6-weeks long and is designed for ages 8-14, skill level 4-5.  Each session includes a few skills, a game, and a trail ride at Glenridge Acres, a privately owned and operated mountain bike facility. Participants will need to bring a mountain bike, a helmet, and of course their STOKE!

As recipients of an iRide Development Grant, our instructors have registered with Cycling BC, undergone NCCP-training, and completed a background screening. All sessions are covered by Cycling BC’s insurance policy with Gallagher.
