Trailer link: https://youtu.be/JDTbm4upUGw
Join us for a night of storytelling interwoven with videos. Five of us–Elliott, Mirko, Joe, Ilya, and Martin–will share our favorite stories from a series of the self-propelled trips over the last several years, ranging from bike-accessed volcano ski-mountaineering to swimming through the wilds of Vancouver Island’s western lakes. We’ll make it swift, entertaining, and try to explain why we repeatedly strap the gear to our bicycles and pedal towards adventures in mountains.
When: March 28th at 7:00pm (We will start on time)
