The Bikepack Canada Podcast Ryan Correy

Arie Hoogerbrugge started riding to Argentina on November 11, 2019. Since starting in Newfoundland, the outpouring of support and the kindness of strangers he has received has fuelled his journey and kept him warm and fed. Listen in as he speaks to the lessons learned and how cycling has been a keystone to his mental health.

Brian Szklarczuk (@vladperogie) is changing the face of bikepacking and cycling in Manitoba and wants to make the activity more accessible. His entrepreneurial spirit has allowed him to form the relationships he needs to make his goals a reality. In conjunction with Bonjour Manitoba, he’s waking up the spirit of cycling, which will place this province on the map with unique cycling experiences accessible to all.

Lamar Timmins jumped in with both feet when he decided to tackle the Silk Road Mountain Race this past summer. Although he was no stranger to pushing his limits, Lamar was tested physically and mentally. In this episode we hear about the challenges he faced and just how important mind set was for him to finish this gruelling track.

On this episode of the Bikepack Canada Podcast, we speak with Adventure Audio Podcast hosts Tyler Hamilton and Peter Hockenhull.
