In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I connect with Robert Biron, also known as, Salty Beard Bikepacking. Rob has been a lifeline cyclist, being involved in mountain biking in its infancy, racing, commuting, randonneuring and more recently, bikepacking. Over the past few years, Rob has started a YouTube page to share his bikepacking adventures, and has quickly grown a sizeable viewership, as a result of his personality and the authenticity in which his videos are made. More recently, Rob has curated a bikepacking route across, over and around northern Vancouver Island. Throughout this conversation, we touch on lots of different aspects of our lives and involvement in the bikepacking community. I hope you enjoy.
