Olympia Cycle & Ski

At Olympia Cycle & Ski we strive to treat everyone equally whether you're a casual weekend rider or skier, or if you're hoping to make the national team, and we're proud to count both kinds of customers as loyal clients.

We know that our recreational customers can benefit from the experience, product testing and feedback of our elite athletes and local race circuit patrons, and we're proud of our racing heritage, starting with the Olympic Games experience of our founder, Lindsay Gauld.

Because we believe that competitive riding and skiing benefits all of our customers, either directly or indirectly, we feel it's important to support the local race scene by hosting many races a year, including our own Wednesday Night Bur Oak Race Series, Manitoba Cup mountain bike races, a number of local cyclocross races, and major one day events like the RedAssiniboine 300 and Reach the Beach. Many of our staff have raced and organized events from the local to the national and international levels, including everything from competing in national cycling championships and directing a national series triathlon to hosting and racing in local, unsanctioned winter cyclocross events.

Most of the events we host are a part of the local Manitoba Cycling Association and Cross Country Ski Association of Manitoba. We've also had very close connections with the local triathlon scene and races sanctioned by Triathlon Manitoba. Links to the race calendars for all three Associations are listed above. We'll post info on other race events on this site as their start dates approach. We encourage you to check out the local race scene, whether it's a race that we or any of the other fine organizers in this province put on.
