Fernie’s FREE fun speed event has returned and will enable you to challenge last years winners. In 2020 Fernie locals Joy Attala and Strahan Loken took home the titles and lots of prizing from Gearhub Sports! Who will be this years KOM and QOM?

Mark Hall, Gearhub Owner/Manager, commented, “We are proud to support this local speed race and have a fun event for our customers and staff to participate in!” Gearhub will be providing event prizing from RaceFace, Evoc, Michelin and others.
