“I borrowed his sister’s bike, and it was love at first ride,” she says. Her falling for the sport reignited Troy’s passion and soon they decided to make the move to the Crowsnest Pass fulfilling their dream of living in the mountains. “That’s when we started riding in Fernie, and I can honestly say that out of anywhere I have ever rode my bike, Fernie is easily my favourite.”

Flying down Oh Dear, just about to take a corner I hear Emily scream ahead of me and see something small and black at her feet. “Is it a bear cub?” I ask until I realize it’s a dog. Then I see a sweat ridden John Merritt running towards us asking between breaths which trail he’s on. My bike partner thought it was the strangest site, but to those of us that frequent trails in Fernie it’s a farily normal occurrence.
