Would you ride the Himalayas with Seb Kemp?

As you may or may not know, globetrotting mountain biker cum-journalist-guide-coach extra-ordinaire Seb Kemp joined Stephen Matthews this past August as co-guide of our infamous Switzerland Alpenrock DH trips. He also co-drove the boat on an epic private Sea to Sky trip in our backyard, riding Whistler, Pemberton, Squamish, the Chilcotins and the Sunshine Coast. From all accounts across the board, Seb was a huge asset with his amazing coaching, guiding and riding skills and super sense of humour. And he's patient. Intelligent. He's top notch. We're so happy that Seb's joined our team here at Big Mountain Adventures that we've asked him to head over to the Himalayas next month to co-guide our Himalaya Heights Nepal mountain bike trip. I think that this group is in for a rocking good time on and off the bike as Kemp will surely keep things fresh and definitely memorable. That's what good life's all about though eh? Riding bikes and having fun. Plus, professional photographer Dan Barham's on this trip. All time eh?
Get inspired, read some of Seb's fine words and far-out thoughts from his blog "2FLAT: Insipid tales of a terrible child." Seb's account of Day 1 of the Las Vegas Interbike show, courtesy of nsmb.com.

The BIGGEST mountains on the planet?

Oh, that's right, the biggest. The Himalaya. This photo just arrived from the Tibetan Plateau, a zone called Mustang. In the words of our guide, "This season we have been exploring every little trail in Upper Mustang in Nepal on foot, horse and bikes in order to run out of the world bike trips in the Tibetan Plateau in the future." Sounds very enticing indeed. We're going to Nepal next October on our Himalayan Heights trip, dates and details are still being worked out but coming very soon...shall we ride the Mustang together?
