Whether you are new to mountain biking, visiting the area, or looking to refine your skills, Ridetheory provides structured, supportive experiences led by certified coaches who know the local terrain inside and out.
Guided Tours
Ridetheory’s guided tours are built around the rider. Tours are customized based on experience level, fitness, and preferred riding style, whether that means smooth flow trails, technical singletrack, or scenic viewpoints. Guides select routes that showcase Cranbrook’s best riding while prioritizing safety, progression, and enjoyment. Along the way, riders can expect trail tips, local knowledge, and plenty of opportunities to stop, regroup, and take in the surroundings.
All guides are PMBIA certified and trained in first aid, ensuring a safe and well-supported experience on the trail.
Camps and Youth Programs
Ridetheory runs seasonal youth camps and after-school programs in Cranbrook that focus on building strong foundations for lifelong riding. Camps range from multi-day summer programs to shorter skill-based sessions, designed to improve balance, body positioning, braking, cornering, and trail awareness.
Youth camps emphasize progression in a fun, inclusive environment, helping young riders gain confidence while learning proper trail etiquette and safe riding habits. Participants are grouped by age and ability, allowing each rider to develop at a comfortable pace while making new friends who share a love for biking and the outdoors.
What to Expect
Both tours and camps include a bike and equipment check, structured instruction or guiding, and ongoing feedback from coaches. Riders are encouraged to progress at their own pace while developing skills that can be carried forward into future rides.
Ridetheory programs are designed to be supportive, encouraging, and rooted in a genuine passion for mountain biking and community.
Contact and Booking
Ridetheory operates programs in Cranbrook, Kimberley, and Fernie, with private tours and camps available by booking in advance. Tours and camps are seasonal and space is limited, so early booking is recommended.
