Cycling BC is the provincial governing body for the sport of cycling. Its mission is to “Foster quality competition from the grass roots through to high performance levels, and encourage partnerships to grow participation in the sport of cycling.”
Many in the cycling community believe that Cycling BC is not fulfilling this mandate, and its principal function has become to serve as a sports administrator, solely responsible for enforcing policy, rules, and regulations. A group of like-minded individuals, with a passion to see cycling grow and succeed in this province, has been organised to help return Cycling BC to its mission statement, and become an organization that prides itself on building the sport from the grassroots, fostering growth, supporting clubs, and being an active leader at all levels. My name below indicates my support for constructive change at Cycling BC:
Reaching this point has taken a toll, but seeing so many people agree that our cycling culture needs a real change keeps me going. We have a long road ahead to fix the direction of this organization, but this momentum proves we are not fighting alone.

Too much red tape lately. We need to focus on getting kids on bikes again not just pushing paperwork around.

Ridiculous how much they charge for fees vs what they actually do for the actual cycling community. Change is needed.

Finally someone said it. The grass roots are completely ignored. My club gets zero help from them.
