Join us 🍂🚲 | Grey Ghost Pursuit | September 26–27, 2026
2-day gravel bike event in the West Kootenays

Cool air. Golden hillsides. Hero dirt. Quiet roads. And a full summer of riding under your belt.

There’s a reason September is one of our favourite months to ride in the West Kootenays—the summer heat has eased and you can push hard up a long gravel climb without cooking in the sun.

After months of summer heat and dust, cooler temperatures and a little September moisture can make the gravel firmer, faster and far less dusty.

The whole region feels a little different this time of year. Summer crowds have thinned. Roads and trails are quieter. And after a season of riding, your legs are often at their strongest.

There are never guarantees with mountain weather, but late September brings together so much of what we love about riding here:

🍂 Crisp temperatures
🍁 Fall colours
🌲 Hero dirt
💪 Strong legs
🏔️ Quiet roads
🚲 One last big adventure before winter

Two days. Spectacular West Kootenay gravel. One very good reason not to put the bike away just yet.

🚨 Imagine spending a weekend riding with one of the world's best bikepackers.

This September, you can. We're thrilled to welcome Meaghan Hackinen to Grey Ghost Pursuit.

As a Salsa Cycles sponsored rider, two-time Tour Divide champion, current women's Tour Divide record holder, ultra-endurance racer, and award-winning cycling author, Meaghan has ridden and raced farther than most of us can imagine. Yet if you've followed her work, you'll know she's just as passionate about sharing stories and building community as she is about racing.

And that's exactly why Grey Ghost Pursuit is different.

This isn't just a race you show up for, pin on a number, and head home after the finish line.

🚵 SATURDAY: Race one of the most spectacular point-to-point gravel routes in British Columbia, with your overnight gear transported to the finish so you can simply focus on the ride.

☕ SUNDAY: Gather over breakfast before rolling out together on our social ride back. It's a rare opportunity to ask Meaghan about bikepacking, the Tour Divide, adventure riding, and everything she's learned from thousands of kilometres on some of the world's toughest routes.

These are the moments that don't happen at most events. The conversations. The shared miles. The friendships. The stories you'll still be telling long after the weekend is over.

⭐ "One of the best races I've done!!!!" — Mikayla Arends

Join us for an unforgettable weekend of gravel, adventure, and community.

One weekend. Two very different rides. One unforgettable experience.

Not everyone comes to Grey Ghost Pursuit with the same goals, and that’s exactly how we designed it.

Choose the challenge that suits your pursuit:
🏔️ DIG DEEP – 140 km
For riders looking to test themselves. Big climbs. Long miles. Endless gravel. The kind of ride that leaves your legs empty and your spirit full.
🌲 JUST RIGHT – 65 km
For riders who want all the beauty and adventure without the all-day suffering. A rewarding challenge with spectacular scenery, great gravel, and plenty of time to soak it all in.

Then, regardless of which route you choose…
🏁 Saturday Race
Challenge yourself on the route you chose, celebrate at the finish line, and see how you stack up against the field.
☕ Sunday Social Ride
Spin easy, share stories from the day before, and enjoy the community that makes Grey Ghost Pursuit so special.

This isn’t just a race. It’s a full weekend experience.

Whether you’re chasing a personal best, riding your first gravel event, or looking an unforgettable weekend, there’s a place in the West Kootenays for you.

Hi. I'm Steph. Three years ago, I started Grey Ghost Pursuit while recovering from a bike crash that left me unable to ride. At a time when I felt disconnected from a sport and community I loved deeply, I began dreaming about the kind of cycling experience I wanted to create. One that felt adventurous, supportive, gritty, scenic, and deeply connected to place. That dream became Grey Ghost Pursuit.

What began as a personal way to stay connected to cycling has grown into a two-day gravel event that showcases some of the most beautiful and unexplored dirt roads in the West Kootenays. Quiet forest service roads. Rail trails. Tunnels. Bridges. Challenging climbs. Big views. Small communities. Amazing people.

From Rossland to Castlegar to Christina Lake, this event is about more than riding bikes. It’s about adventure, challenge, connection, and discovering hidden places you might never otherwise see.

Whether you choose the 140 km “Dig Deep” route or the 65 km “Just Right” route, I hope you leave feeling proud, inspired, and more connected to this incredible region.

Registration is open now.

Early bird pricing ends June 30, 2026. Save $50 before prices increase.

I’d love to ride with you this September.
