Hi, my name is Hayes, and I'm off on a mission to cycle from Canada to Argentina. A year ago I didn't even know what bikepacking was, but after coming across a video of a long distance bikepacker traveling across the globe, it lit a spark that I couldn't ignore. I always wanted to travel the world, but being in college I couldn't afford expensive flights and costly resorts. So when I found I could travel cheaply AND experience cultures in a way a fancy resort never could, I was hooked.

I planned my first ever bikepacking trip (it was more of a bike touring trip) across western Canada. It lasted only 2 weeks but I loved the freedom that a bicycle offered. I could go places a car could never! Now here I am, less than a year later, off on the trip of my life. And hopefully… this will only be the beginning.
