The Fernie E-Bike Rally is a non-competitive challenge for individuals or teams. Riders will be given a series of Trailforks checkpoints on the morning of the event and must design their own route to reach them all. Success depends on choosing the most efficient line—balancing distance, elevation, terrain, battery use, and personal riding ability. There’s no single “right” route. Strategy is the challenge. All riders who complete the E-Rally are eligible for prizing, with awards presented during the official Fernie Singletrack 3 (FST3) Awards Ceremony.
 

Schedule

• 10:00 AM – Arrive at the Montane Barn. Trailforks Checkpoint map/link released.
• 11:00 AM – E-Rally departure window opens.
• 3:00 PM – Course closes / finish cutoff.
• 5:00 PM – E-Rally awards at FST3 Awards Ceremony

Designed to be accessible, social, and fun, the Fernie E-Rally celebrates e-bikes as a tool for exploration, strategy, and inclusive participation—fully aligned with the spirit of Fernie’s trail culture.

What type of E-bike is allowed? 

Only a Class 1 e-bike is allowed on Fernie trails. A Class 1 means a bicycle equipped with a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling (pedal assist) and that ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches 32km/hr and has a maximum continuous wattage output of 500 watts.

The Ride & Roast Kids Bike Rodeo is a free event for kids aged 2 to 14.

Up to 100 kids can take part, with 25 participants starting every 30 minutes from 12 pm to 2 pm. Riders will meet at the Kids’ Tent, where the fun begins with bike decorating and a Plinko board game.

From there, kids will take part in a skill-development session before heading into a rodeo adventure on an age-appropriate trail. The ride will include a mini skills course and scavenger hunt. Parents are required to accompany their children on the trail portion.

The adventure wraps up with a treat from Happy Cow.

Funding from the event will help send a local child to camp through the Ghostriders Adventure Camp Foundation.

Kids Bike Rodeo Registration is FREE! Deadline to register is June 26th or until spots are filled.

Ride to the Ride & Roast Bike Fest in style and show off your townie when you get there. Pimp Your Townie is a fun show ’n shine-style gathering for Fernie’s favourite around-town bikes, from cruisers and commuters to vintage rigs, custom builds, and gloriously questionable daily riders. Shine it up, dress it up, and line it up for display. Between 4:30pm - 5:00pm riders will then roll out for a fun parade lap around the festival area, with the winner chosen by crowd applause.
