AMBASSADOR SPOTLIGHT
Roy Miller
Mountain Biker • Trail Builder • Community Steward
For more than three decades, Roy has been a fixture in Abbotsford’s mountain biking community. A dedicated rider since the mid 1990s, his impact extends far beyond the trails he rides. Following his retirement in 2015, Roy devoted countless hours to trail building and maintenance at Ledgeview, helping preserve and improve the riding experience for the local community.
In 2020, alongside Gary Harder, Gary Weber, and many other volunteers, Roy helped lead the effort to reclaim and restore Soft Taco. Together, the group contributed approximately 700 volunteer hours to bringing the trail back to life. When organized rides disappeared during the pandemic, he created Soft Taco Tuesday - a weekly ride that brought riders together, introducing new faces to the trails, and kept the local riding community connected during a challenging time.
Why He Rides:
For Roy, mountain biking is about fun, community, and adventure. Whether he’s maintaining trails, leading rides, or exploring new routes, cycling provides a way to stay active, connect with others, and enjoy the outdoors. It also pairs perfectly with his other passion: skiing.
Most Memorable Ride:
Riding the Five Peaks of Abbotsford with his daughter Selina stands out as one of Roy’s favourite cycling memories. The route linked Ledgeview, Noodley Appendage, Sumas, Harder Way, Salty Nozzle, and Long Way Home into one massive day on the bike. An accomplishment made even more meaningful by sharing it with family.
Favourite Route:
Roy’s go to route starts with the climb to the top of Ledgeview before dropping into Noodley Appendage and finishing on Soft Taco. As part of the volunteer team that helped bring the trail back to life, he has a unique connection to every corner of it.
Roy’s dedication to trail stewardship, community building, and mountain biking has helped shape the riding culture of Abbotsford. His contributions continue to leave a lasting impact on the trails and riders who call Ledgeview home.
