This used to be a Sears department store. Now, it's B.C.'s largest indoor bike park.
The park's terrain was designed to accommodate various skill levels and styles of cycling, says general manager Mike Upton.
The North Shore Bike Park at Capilano Mall is located in the former Sears store, which closed in January 2018. Upton said he and nine other cycling-loving North Shore residents came together about two years ago, pooling their resources with the vision of creating more than just a bike park.While patrons will need to purchase memberships or day passes to ride, Upton says they plan to hold free programming to help the community learn about cycling and health.
He says the terrain was designed to be an accessible and welcoming space for riders of all levels and styles — from mountain biking to BMX to leisure cycling.
