RMCC is stoked to have expert rider and coach Ryan Draper join us once again this season! Ryan has coached RMCC adult and youth programs since 2016, and took over the Rampage Program as Head Coach in 2017.

Ryan says of these years of racing that “lessons were learned and adversity was plentiful” and he is eager to work with developing athletes to share his extensive knowledge and know-how in the sport of cycling. Sharing his passion for the sport and making it accessible to other riders is his mission. Ryan is well-versed in all forms of cycling, including cross-country, all mountain, road, touring, cyclocross, triathlon, and fat biking.

Nathan Weima: Rampage Coach
Nathan grew up on the shores of Lake Superior and made the move to the Bow Valley in 2005. He grew up glued to his BMX and made the transition to mountain biking in the early 2000s. Since then Nathan eventually grew his passion for riding into a career working with Rebound Cycle in Canmore Alberta. Watching others discover what a properly set up bike can do for them, and seeing the smiles on their faces afterwards is what continues to fuel his love for cycling, and the community. When not working as a Real Estate agent, or at Rebound, Nathan loves to go west and ride all over the BC interior and shore. Nathan joined the RMCC coaching team in 2017 as a U13 coach for the Youth Revolution. He is very excited to bring all his industry knowledge and experience to the RMCC Rampage program in 2018.

Mark Innes: Rampage Coach
- Mark grew up in Ontario, riding all the trails he and his friends could find!
- Having started cross country biking at a young age, he still associates cycling with endless fun ripping around town with buddies. Mark moved to the Bow Valley in 2001, and knew that the mountains would be his home. Over the years, Mark has come to enjoy both mountain and road biking. In the winter, he leads backcountry trips with the Alpine Club of Canada. This has led to many adventures including the Bugaboos to Rogers Pass Ski Traverse. He has owned and operated a local business called Rundle Electric for over ten years. Mark met his wife in Canmore, who also has a passion for mountain biking! Together, they spend many weekends exploring the endless singletrack in Alberta, BC, and further afield with trips to the the United States, Mexico, and Italy. Mark is looking forward to sharing his stoke for mountain biking with Rampage athletes, and working with them to be able to enjoy the lifelong benefits of cycling!

Brittany Webster: RMCC-R Race Team Coach
You may know Brittany as one of “those cross-country skiers” in Canmore. A two-time Olympian, Brittany is well adept to the training demands and skills needed to excel in sport. Some racing career highlights include Top Canadian Female Distance Skier at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi and the Top Overall Amateur Female at the 2014 XTerra World Championship in Maui.
In the summer she competes in mountain bike, road cycling and triathlon races, and has a broad knowledge base of sport physiology and nutrition.
She recently retired as a skier to continue her university education (she has aspirations of becoming a physio therapist!) all the while keeping her love of racing alive by traveling across North America to XTerra races.
Her vibrant personality and sense of humour keeps athletes she works with positive and motivated, even through the most grueling workouts. She is excited to work with the RMCC Rampage to help our young club athletes accomplish their goals and develop a lifelong passion for sport. We are excited to have Brittany as part of the RMCC team!
