This is the "Old Guard" of the BC racing scene, running for over 25 years. It is widely considered one of the hardest races to predict because the "parcours" (the course profile) looks easier than it actually feels.

The Course: Staged at the "Aldergrove Bowl" (Lefeuvre Rd & 8th Ave). It features an undulating highway section and long, windy rural roads.

The Signature Move: The twisty kicker to the line. After 80–100 km of being worn down by the wind, the finish is a technical, uphill snap that requires you to have one last explosive effort left in the legs.

Vibe: This is a race of attrition. It’s usually where the "diesel" engines excel—riders who can sustain high power while being buffeted by the valley winds.
