On the behalf of the KBRA and the City of Kamloops, we would like to invite the mountain bike community to the Grand Opening of The Ranch on July 2 and 3, 2005. Manufacturers and retailers will be there, and people from all aspects of the industry have been invited. There will also be live music and food, all of which is good for the soul.

Phase One of the Ranch includes a jump park, an A Line-type downhill track and a BMX track. One of the keys to success for our park is keeping moisture on the trails; we are working closely with the City of Kamloops and Toro to develop a solution to control dust. Phase Two and Three will be completed over the next several years with ongoing updates to the park, six downhill tracks, a 4X track and a feasibility study for lift-access riding.

A big part of the success of The Ranch depends on volunteer work. Thousands of man hours have already gone into development. Special thanks to Curt Doyle, Matt Hunter, Dusrin Windross, Taylor Hollstedt and Kevin O’Brien. 21 volunteers took two days to build a 1,700 metre snake-rail fence. Also huge props to the Board of Directors of the KBRA and the City of Kamloops.

We are looking forward to seeing riders from across the province come out for the Grand Opening for a chance to ride a great track and party down in Kamloops.
