About Us
The Highriders Off-Road Club is a society of 4x4 enthusiasts that began forming around 1998. We are a family oriented club with no membership dues and
come from all walks of life. We have very few rules and accept
all makes and models of 4WD vehicles from stock to highly
modified, some of our members don’t even
own trucks but enjoy camping and other forms of recreation.
Our meetings are informal and usually take place around the
campfire with a laid-back non-political attitude.
Highrider members have taken on some of North
Americas most challenging trails and competitions and have
been featured in publications and television. We are not "web
wheelers" You will find Highriders year round on the
trail and at competitions.. Based mainly in Red Deer Alberta
we have members across Canada.
We can also be seen entertaining the 4 wheel drive community
at other events with the giant movie screen featuring our own 4x4
DVD productions.
The Highriders Challenge & Tail Creek Race Way
Our annual event The Highriders
Challenge has grown to be one of Canada's biggest and
is recognized as the toughest. The best teams come from across
the country for a chance to put their names on The HRC Cup. Each year the event grows in size and excitement.
In 2007 the Highriders became the custodians of Tail Creek Race Way located near the village of Alix. As well as securing a permanent home for the Challenge the club now has a get-away play ground. We have also entered into partnerships to bring other types of exciting Off Road Racing to the Park. We are determined to make the Race Way the number one off-road destination.
Land Use
Highriders are extremely concerned with trail closures, and other
issues that adversely impact 4-wheeling. We perform trail
clean-ups, host charity events and support many different
organizations focused on education regarding safe and ethical
off-roading. We strive to leave our recreation areas in a
better condition then we found them and practice responsible
wheeling.
We support the following organizations.
Alberta Four
Wheel Drive Association
Alberta
United Recreationist Society
Recreational Trail Rides
We began as a small group of off-road enthusiasts enjoying camping and exploring the back trails of Alberta and we continue to stay true to our roots. We have mapped many trails and get out camping often as possible. Occasionally we even leave our rigs behind to enjoy other types of recreation.
The Trail Goes On Forever and The Party Never Ends
We are also a very social club and as our numbers grow so does our gatherings. Live music is now featured at our larger events. The annual Thanksgiving Bash and HRC have seen recording artists take to the Highrider Stage. Though we like to party we welcome and encourage families to join in on the fun regardless of age.
