  • Follow along on a day in the life of Bike Big White’s dedicated bike patrol team, presented by POC. From the crack of dawn, watch as they gear up and hit the mountain, ensuring the safety and security of recreating guests. Learn about the unique challenges and rewards of patrolling on two wheels, and gain a deeper appreciation for the vital role bike patrol play in maintaining the highest safety standards at one of British Columbia’s most technical bike parks. It's an inside look at a day filled with adventure, service, and dedication.
    Bike Big White would like to thank POC:
    poc.com/en-ca - For keeping our patrol team protected on the mountain in both summer and winter.

    So much respect to patrollers. As much as it's a fun and "dreamy" kind of job riding bike park and hanging out in the alpine all day, its tough work! First Aid is not easy to train, and to be able to remain calm and collected in any situation is something only few people on this planet can do. The only thing better than riding today is riding tomorrow, and these are the guys and girls allowing us to do that day in day out. Thank you all!

    I'm a former bike/ski patrol in the BC interior. It was the best job I've ever had. I'm glad to see it hasn't changed much at Big White. I miss it dearly. I'll probably apply for a job when I retire (it was that fun!)

    When i read the word "patrol " it reminded me of the forest service cops that use to patrol
    Mt.,Tamaulipas in Marin county California. . they used radar guns and handed out speeding tickets on the fire roads . the roads are multi use and packed with hikers on the weekends .
