As September ushers in crisp autumn air over Squamish, the town comes alive with energy, community spirit, and the thrill of sport. This weekend promises two remarkable events that capture the essence of our scenic town.
RBC GranFondo Whistler – September 6
On September 6, over 5,000 passionate cyclists will traverse the winding roads of Squamish during the RBC GranFondo Whistler. Riders of all levels—from seasoned athletes to enthusiastic amateurs—will challenge themselves along breathtaking stretches of Highway 99, framed by towering mountains and shimmering waterways. Spectators are encouraged to arrive early, as traffic delays are expected, but the excitement of cheering on riders against the stunning backdrop is well worth the journey. This event is more than a race; it is a celebration of endurance, camaraderie, and the spectacular natural beauty of British Columbia.
