THE BIG ROCK CANDY MOUNTAIN
For the past nine years, the Traction eRag has hosted once-in-a-lifetime adventures from Alaska to Nova Scotia, West Virginia to Quebec. We have built an international reputation for putting together mind-blowing experiences for riders of all skill levels.
During the Great Depression, the Big Rock Candy Mountain was a hobo’s dream – a mythological place where life was easy and resources abundant. After living and riding all over North America, we have discovered our Big Rock Candy Mountain – the Central Interior of British Columbia.
Living in overcrowded places with inconvenient access to wilderness dulls the senses. So, in 2017, the Traction eRag relocated to remote British Columbia. What we discovered was an off-road rider’s utopia – a Canadian wilderness that is raw, unspoiled, and vast.
This region has a vibrant riding community with a low population base. With eight distinct regions of the province, there are an incalculable amount of riding areas, terrain and climate zones to experience.
Motorcyclists share a yearning for exploration and adventure. Come ride the Big Rock Candy Mountain – an unspoiled utopia!
“The Big rock candy mountain is a place where you can ride all day and never see another soul”
NOW BOOKING: MAY/JUNE 2024
The Big Rock Candy Mountain adventure has thick Canadian forest, pristine lakes, staggering vistas and incredible camaraderie. Spend a week with participants from around the world as you ride with friends old and new.
Ride ribbony single track through majestic Douglas Fir forests while encountering jaw dropping vistas all connected by an unrivaled network of transit roads.
Every day explore a wild mix of terrain and vistas. This outrageously fun landscape has options for both advanced and novice riders – a perfect place to enhance skill development while having the adventure of a lifetime.
At the end of a satisfying day we return to base for an abundance of home cooked food, cold drinks, and a round of tall tales.
“Only the Traction eRag could have people thanking them for a great time after 5 days of sweating their balls off, slogging it out in mud up to their ass crack, dodging fallen trees, wet roots, overhanging tree branches, walls of dust at 90kph – all while being relentlessly attacked by mosquitos. Bravo. I’m looking forward to the next event.”
There is a place for you.
We understand how intimidating riding with an unknown group can be. Don’t worry - you will find like-minded riding buddies. Nobody is a pro rider, including the eRag Reprobates. We have designed these rides for the weekend warrior.
If you want to dent your skid plate and crap your diaper, there is a group for you. If you want to take your time to enjoy the vistas, those riders are here too. We will make sure everybody is having their adventure of a lifetime.

What You Need To Know
Our shenanigans sell out very quickly, often by previous riders. You may need time to discuss with work, family or your parole officer but regardless, we will need a deposit to hold your spot.
We do not share many advance details. Although it may be uncomfortable not knowing the thread count of the sheets, we believe that uncertainty is the mother of adventure. We share enough detail so you will be adequately prepared for what you will encounter during the week.
“Money well spent, I would do the week again! The food was fantastic and the smiles and greetings made me feel like family.”
