The Spud Crusher
Women’s Enduro
MAY 24 2025
The "Spud Crusher" Women’s Enduro, named after Pemberton Valley’s renowned seed potato farming, is all about celebrating everything that makes Pemberton special—without taking things too seriously. We kicked off this event in 2018 to support our local Women’s Bike Club and to create a fun, inclusive space where women can learn, push their limits, or just chill and ride. Whether you’re in it to win or just here for a day out with your crew, the Spud Crusher is all about good times on two wheels.
Supporting the Community
Your participation in the Spud Crusher directly benefits three key community organizations: PORCA, and Pemberton Search and Rescue, making a lasting difference in the Pemberton community.
Empowering Women, Building Connection
We’re dedicated to creating a race environment that’s as empowering as it is inclusive. With our nearly 50/50 membership split, we’re committed to growing and maintaining this balance by encouraging more women to hit the trails.
