Bike Park partners


We have always been passionate about supporting projects where the spirit and values match ours. Together with our riders and teams, we’re happy to start 2018 season alongside our partner bike parks too!

NEW 2018 //


LES ANGLES BIKE PARK 

We were fascinated by the dynamism of this Pyrenean bike park! After spending some time in Whistler, their team of park shapers were inspired by their experience in terms of creating tracks, and they’re preparing something huge for the opening of the 2018 season! We can’t wait to see it.
Pre-opening on 1st July and continuously from 7th July - 3rd September and the weekends of 9/10, 16/17 and 23/24 September.

Don’t miss : 30 Juin - 1er Juillet / Mordoride et 7-8 Juillet / Faster Than You

CARDRONA BIKE PARK, NZ 

Ideally located between our New Zealand offices in Wanaka and Queenstown, we couldn’t dream of a better place to represent COMMENCAL on the other side of the planet! Even if the summer season is just ending in the southern hemisphere we ‘ll use those six months to work together on some fun up-coming projects. To be continued...

SINGLETRACKS & LA SORRERA BIKE PARK

After EVO Bike Park and La Fenasosa, it's the turn of Singletracks (Limousin, France) and Sorrera Bike Park (Catalonia, Spain) to join the family of private bike parks that we support. We are fans of this concept and their teams (often volunteers) are highly motivated and involved in the development of mountain biking in their area. Open almost all year round!

6th May / EnduroTracks at Singletracks Bike Park
29th April / DH Catalan Cup at La Sorrera Bike Park

VALLNORD

The close relationship we have with the Andorran resort is not only down to the fact that their tracks are only moments away from our office... We have worked hand in hand for several years for the development of mountain biking in Andorra. The organisation of the UCI World Cup is the best proof. They are also partners with our two main teams in downhill and enduro.
Open from 19th May - 14th October 2018
Don’t miss:
19th -20th May / FASTER THAN YOU
16th -17th June / MaxiAvalanche,

LES ORRES

It's been a couple of years now since we settled in this resort in the Southern French Alps and since the beginning, their craze for mountain biking has continued to grow. It’s been announced that in 2019 they will host a round of the Enduro World Series and we will obviously do everything possible to help in organising this brilliant event. In addition to the resort itself, the Ambassad’Orres who are a local team, are real ambassadors of the spot and that’s not just a play on words...

LES 2 ALPES

For our second year of partnership with L2A we will launch the bike park season at the end of April, with our event FASTER THAN YOU!
Despite the snow falling in droves all winter, the station is highly motivated to do everything to ensure that their famous Venosc track is roll-able for the occasion. A nice weekend of riding and partying is hotly anticipated...

LES ARCS

Blessed with incredibly varied terrain, it’s our vision of mountain biking that is summed up when one rides the single track of Les Arcs, France. Mostly enduro-oriented, it's a great alternative to conventional bike parks. Our presence here is assured by Eric Poccard’s store ARCS MTB in 1800 where they rent many META, META POWER & FURIOUS and our whole range of kid’s bikes, throughout the summer season.
Pre-opener 1st - 2nd July and continuously from 8th July - 2nd September
Don’t miss: 21nd April / Ski 2 Bike

AX LES THERMES 

Because of our geographic proximity and affinity to this region, this partnership is almost a necessity! Ax Les Thermes is investing even more into mountain biking and this year they will host a MaxiAvalanche round and an e-bike show at the same time. Don’t miss an opportunity to ride here and travel up in style in the COMMENCAL gondola!
Pre-opener 30th June – 1st July then continuously from 7th July – 2nd September

EVO BIKE PARK 

Ideally located in the South of France and taking inspiration from private Canadian bike parks, we were immediately attracted to this project. From our first discussions with Romain, Hugo and Thomas our three riders who had the initiative for the park, we knew we had to be involved! To be able to ride almost all the year and especially during the off-season when mountain resort bike parks are closed, is it not a dream come true?
Since its opening and again this year, new tracks are regularly emerging and the number of riders is increasing from season to season.
Open 24th March from Saturdays to Mondays.
The list of events is yet to come...

LA FENASOSA 

La Fenasosa Bike Park is located a few kilometres from Alicante in the southern half of Spain. The tracks are built on private property, which was interestingly a former hunting ground of the Belgian King. The ex-army 4x4 trucks provide the uplifts, a castle as a meeting point and traditional paella for lunch! Sound appealing? Sure does! It’s not a surprise that the best World Cup teams head there for their winter training camps.
Open every weekend. Annual closure in August.
Don’t miss:
14th – 15th April / Chainless Race
19th – 20th May / FunCup,
23rd June / 10th Anniversary
3rd -4th November / FunCup

LOURDES VTT

With the arrival of the electric bike, the potential for this part of the French Pyrenees is huge! Indeed, 2018 is a year off for Lourdes in hosting the DH World Cup but there are many other things to explore. We continue to support the LOURDES VTT association and Bike & Py store who are both very active in the community. Some members of staff as well as our pro rider Anne Caroline Chausson will have the chance to participate in the Pyr'Epic with our META POWER in September. The experience promises to be extraordinary...

Funicular Pic du Jer is open from 23rd March - 4th November.
Don’t miss: 1st – 2nd September / Pyr'Epic

We have always had the mentality to look at things from a long-term perspective with our partners and try to be as involved as possible in their development.
Their bike patrol will ride our FURIOUS, SUPREME DH or META AM and META POWER models and will be our best representatives out on the trails. We will also have the pleasure of visiting the resorts with our teams to participate in some events on site.

Most of these resorts also have partner stores where you can rent and test our new bike range.

 

So which of these places takes your fancy?
