The Winter Bicicle Shredfest at Fernie Alpine Resort (FAR) had a jam-packed schedule despite not moving forward with the fat bike race.

The Shredfest portion of the evening on Saturday, April 4 continued with a Kokanee Peak Brew Launch Party, where Kokanee Glacier Girls were on site handing out Peak Brew goods. Later on, AC/DC tribute band BC/DC took to the stage to entertain attendees all night with a sold out show.

“While it was too bad we couldn’t have the bike event this year, we still had an amazing day,” said FAR events coordinator Jeni Pearson.

Three lucky Shredfest attendees also won snowboards, which were painted on site by a graffiti artist.

The event also served as a fundraiser for the Fernie Mountain Bike Club.
