Bike Cochrane’s mission is to serve Cochrane through the promotion of, and advocacy for, Cycling in our community for all ages.

Our vision is to develop a cycling-friendly culture in Cochrane through the implementation of safe infrastructure for transportation, recreation and competition. We will participate regularly as a recognized stakeholder group in road and community planning, park (re)development, construction projects and area transportation plans, work with public and private land owners and managers to allow public cycling trails and assist in providing and maintaining access to cycle pathways, trails and facilities, for use by the public.

“We pedal, we play, and we build trails, spending our time outdoors in the vast expanse of nature’s embrace. As a land-based organization, we honour that these trails have a history, a present, and a future that transcends two wheels.

We acknowledge that Garhe Meheduwa (Cochrane) rests upon the ancestral lands of the Indigenous people of Treaty 7. The Îyethka (Stoney Nakoda), the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot), the Tsuut’ina (Dene/Athabaskan), the Métis Nation of Alberta - Rockyview Métis District, along with many other Indigenous peoples have nurtured these lands with their wisdom and stewardship since time immemorial.

Bike Cochrane is committed to upholding, maintaining, and restoring the sanctity of this land, where the waters flow, wildlife thrives, and flora blooms. We humbly work towards a deeper relation and shared responsibility as caretakers of this place we call home. We look forward to seeing you on the trails as the best rides are always shared.“
