Peru
Slideshow coming to North Van, Western Canada & California |
Sacred Rides Mountain Bike Holidays (formerly Fernie Fat-Tire
Adventures) is bringing their traveling Peruvian roadshow to North Van. After
company president Mike Brcic and 5 others rode the Inca trail from Lima to Machu
Picchu last November, Mike - also an amateur photographer - put together a nifty
little multimedia show to showcase their trip to the folks back home.
And an epic trip it was: 6,000-vertical foot descents, badass singletrack, tarantulas
the size of a man's head, and lots of Inca culture and remote villages, plus
the Lost City - Machu Picchu.
The show features photos, videos (including some great helmetcam of a trail
that starts at 14,500 feet) and music from Peru.
The best part? Proceeds from the event go to two worthy causes: the North Shore
Mountain Bike Association and Bicycles Without Borders (Sacred Rides' own non-profit
organization that hands out free bikes to families in developing countries).
The North Vancouver event is at the Queen's Cross pub at 2989 Lonsdale
at 7:00 pm on Jan. 23rd. Tickets are $12.50 in advance at the On Top
Bike Shop or $15 at the door. Ticket includes appetizers at the pub.
The slideshow tour will also be visiting, Calgary, Fernie, Nelson, Squamish
& California.
