Prince George [POV] Glenn King & Jacob Mullen Ride Pidherny, BC
Situated at the confluence of the Fraser and Nechako rivers and approximately 600 kilometers north of the MTB hotbed that is Sea-To-Sky, Prince George is regarded as the base camp to northern British Columbia. Here, riders will find crowd-free examples of British Columbia’s legendary riding terrain, complete with skinnies and a northern challenge that tips the difficulty scales slightly higher. Prince George is a welcoming bike community that blends small city sophistication with access to well-built trails and intuitive flow. Four riding zones surround the city, including the prominent Pidherny Recreation Site. Ride along with local legend Glenn King as he chases the heels of Jacob Mullen on their favorite sequence of Pidherny trails, making smooth work of Prince George’s intimidating yet achievable and perfectly crafted woodwork. Glenn and Jacob finish with an obligatory freeride descent down the famed (and legal!) cut banks of the Nechako River.
