You might know that the 55km Medio starts and finishes in Whistler.

But what you won't know is that this year, energizer bunny and all round high vibration party host Rachel Beau aka DJ Rock N Beau will be your fantastic new Medio startline MC!

Rachel isn't any ordinary party leader. She'll be bringing the energy with dance moves, banging music, crowd hype and - rumour has it - maybe even a flash mob?!

Let's live together in the moment - because life is too short to dance through it alone.

The famous Lions Gate Bridge cheer squad by Ride Cycle Club might just have some new competition...

This year, the 152km Forte sold out in record time back in March.

And the Gran Fondo? Not far behind. Given we order all swag and medals months in advance, there's only a limited amount of places up for grabs.

Miss out? You'll be waiting a whole other year to get that iconic RBC GranFondo Whistler feeling again.

The good news? The Medio is not just an upgraded party this year, but at healthy capacity.

Tick tock - the choice is yours!

Located on the site of a historic mining village where the mountains meet the sea, Britannia Village is the first and best place to stop when travelling on Highway 99. The village offers a range of convenient services and amenities including restaurants, shopping, a kids playground, and EV chargers.

The culmination of decades-long process to reclaim and renew the historic British Columbia mining village of Britannia Beach began with an innovative project to clean toxic run off from what was formerly the largest copper mine in the British Empire.
