Due to exceptional circumstances, the 2014 Canadian Mountain Bike Marathon Championships (XCM) will now take place on August 16th, in Squamish, BC. The event will be organized by Dwayne Kress in conjunction with Just Another Bike Race (JABR).

"Cycling Canada is really excited to collaborate with Cycling BC and JABR for the hosting of the 2014 Elite Canadian Mountain Bike Marathon Championships in Western Canada. The event annually attracts some of the country's best mountain bikers challenging for the Red and White Jersey awarded to the Canadian Champions," said Mathieu Boucher, Performance Development Director at Cycling Canada.

"This will expand on the success of mountain bike racing in Squamish and the west coast mountain bike racing scene that already includes the four Squamish cross-country mountain bike marathon races, the fast-growing enduro series, Crankworx events with a Canada Cup cross-country race in Whistler and now a Canadian Championship Marathon race, all within the Sea to Sky corridor," said JABR race director Dwayne Kress.
