I have lived in Prince George my entire life and I love the variety of geography in the central interior. I am an avid skier, snowboarder and trail builder. I love riding my fatty in the winter with my beautiful wife, Wilma and friends. I am a crappy pool player and oh did I mention I ride summer bikes as well

Director At-Large

Brad Irvine

I have been rambling around on Tabor for close to forty years, hiking, skiing, and maintaining trails.  Long distance cycle touring and road riding were my main biking interests until I bought my first mountain bike around 15 years ago.  Tabor is an untapped gem with amazing potential for singletrack trail development, and I am  grateful to be part of the group which is helping to make this happen.

Once upon a time, in another lifetime, Lisa was the only female bike mechanic in Edmonton and has been riding—and occasionally crashing—bikes her whole life. Now based in Prince George, she runs a thriving counselling practice and brings her passion for community, the outdoors, and two-wheeled adventures to the Caledonia Trail Builders. When she’s not on the trails, you’ll find her skiing or biking with her family.

Social Media and Engagement 

Sarah Jackson 

Raised in PG, I found mountain biking during rainy COVID winters spent on Vancouver Island. I was pleased to find upon returning to my hometown that the mountain biking here is awesome and getting better every year. I am excited to be part of the great work ACT is doing and to contribute to the community.
