From May 21 to June 5 North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada will host the North Shore Credit Union World Mountain Bike Festival & Conference, a combination of racing and recreational mountain bike festival with a conference on sustainable trails, risk management, tourism and economic development in mountain biking.
The area is known as the home of the 'freeride' style of highly technical downhill mountain biking, but activities over the fortnight also include a mountain bike marathon, an enduro and corporate challenge, a gear swap and an off-road duathlon.
