About

My name is Jack Mac and I live for adventure. Home is where I park it, work is where I find it and love is found in the mountains. I’m a nomad, seeking out a life less ordinary, in pursuit of experiences, not money. I work to live, not live to work and invest every penny I make into building a sustainable life of adventure.

Life on the bike is simple…ride, eat, sleep, repeat. The stress and noise of everyday life is silenced and replaced with a simple desire to reach your destination. Everything you need to live is stored neatly in just a few panniers/bags on your bike. It’s on the trails that you’re reminded the very best things in life are free and that nature provides a satisfaction that far surpasses anything you can buy. Bicycle touring/bikepacking allows you to escape the pressures of modern life, revert back to a more primitive existence and quite simply enjoy life as a human ‘ being ’. The truth is, this has become the only life I know, I want, and the reason I decided to make the transition to van life.
