Marcus VanHeyst

Trail Crew

I was born and raised on the North Shore, with the Mt. Fromme trails just outside my back door. I’ve been biking and hiking the local trails as long as I can remember. This has left me with a deep appreciation of our local environment and the excellent trail network that we enjoy.

I want to contribute to the sport in a positive way and help preserve the North Shore as a progressive riding area. I am grateful for the opportunity to help maintain the trails in a sustainable manner, and so they can be enjoyed by all riders.

Rouben Price

Trail Crew

I’m from Deep Cove and grew up with the North Shore mountains as my backyard. During winter, I try to snowboard most days, and in the warmer months, I ride as much as I can. The trail network here on the North Shore is incredible and I’m proud to care for it.

Gareth Critcher

Marketing Manager

Originally from the steep valleys of South Wales, I’ve relocated with my Canadian partner where the North Shore mountain views are forever inspiring. I studied a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Aided Product Design from Cardiff before joining the bike industry to focus on graphic production, sports marketing and content design. I feel incredibly grateful that I have the opportunity to combine my love for bikes, trails and outdoor adventures with a creative passion for marketing and graphic design.

I am inspired to work and grow the NSMBA community, building upon the incredible history and potential of the North Shore trail networks, community membership and sustainable awareness.
