Our Story
When a town’s popularity booms like Revy’s has, it can be difficult for local infrastructure to keep up with demand. This often damages the small-town lifestyle for locals. With a ski resort that’s a rising star in the world of powder hunters, transport and parking around town has become a key challenge, along with affordability in general.
Revy Rides seeks to help fill that gap with tailored transport services that don’t rely on fixed routes or schedules, but are still affordable. We aim to do this while keeping the business as green and local as possible. This is why we use all-electric vehicles as much as possible, with limited petrol backups, and why we use other local businesses and professionals at every opportunity.
Our founders come from Canada, Australia and the USA, but they all fell in love with Revelstoke and made it their home. They deeply care about the town and its community, which is why they are passionate about local businesses that help the community not simply to grow, but to thrive.

Chief Financial Officer
Raymond Gillmore
Coming from a history of business management, and with a love for community engagement and the arts (ask about his theater repertoire!), Ray is an avid skier and gamer, and is one of the masterminds behind the idea for Revy Rides.
He's also the finances wizard for the company, but that's less exciting.
Chief Operations Officer
Brian Trafford
Canadian born and bred, Brian loves all things operations, including our majority EV fleet and helping scout out new services for Revy Rides! A passionate skier as well, you may catch him ski touring or smashing out some swan-like carving on the slopes in his downtime.
He's also one of our drivers - give him a wave and say hello next time you ride with us!
Chief Strategy Officer
Sarah Gillmore
Shifting from a consulting and information security background, Sarah manages partnerships, sponsorships, marketing and social media for Revy Rides - when she's not pretending she knows how to garden, anyways.
Also an avid skier when her old knees allow, she's discovered a love of beadwork, gardening, and being a dog mum.
