Northwoods Village serves as the gateway to this two-wheeled mecca, positioned between the Burrard Inlet and the North Shore mountains; the ultimate destination that calls to enthusiasts of the sport.

“A spinning track made of steel and powder-coated in fluorescent red, marks the dynamic path of a mountain biker. Referencing the local topography which transitions from flat shoreline to mountainous verticals, the track embodies momentum and motion. It rises to 18 feet high, where a silhouette of a rider is seen completing a jump surrounded by Air.”
