In the summer of 2015 three childhood friends, Joey Schusler, Mason Lacy, and Sam Seward set out for the far western corner of Mongolia to combine mountain biking and pack rafting in a self-supported adventure into the unknown. Never having attempted a mountain bike to pack raft link-up, they decided it was a great idea to travel to one of the most remote and sparsely populated places in the world to try it out.The goal was to traverse the Mongolian Altai, a remote range of high glaciated peaks with silt-laden rivers draining from their heights. The only inhabitants of the region are Kazakh nomads, the last people on earth who continue the tradition of hunting with golden eagles. Ancient standing stones carved over the millennia stand guard over the landscape.Twelve days in the wilderness, riding over high passes loaded with gear, surviving raging whitewater, drinking fermented mare’s milk, and battling the elements, this was not an adventure these young lads would soon forget.For a full write up on their Mongolian adventure, be sure to check out the pages of the July issue of Bike Magazine.Joey SchuslerMason Lacy, Sam Seward, & Joey SchuslerJoey Schusler & Thomas WoodsonPaul Harrison (Shotgun Infinity)Drew Pautler (Good Fortune Collective)Keith White (Keith White Audio)Mason Lacy, Sam Seward, & Canat ChiryazdanYeti Cycles, Smith Optics, Outdoor Research, ENVE Composites, SRAM, RockShox, Skratch Labs, Big Agnes, Revelate DesignsBike Magazine, 5 Point Film Festival
