When Ian Parker and friends started riding (and sometimes carrying) their road bikes in rough and rugged terrain, they pushed the limits of what could be done on skinny tires and unforgiving frames. Then, they discovered this activity had a name: gravel biking. Now, Ian is helping grow the Yukon's mixed-surface biking scene, one flat tire and mud-splattered smile at a time.
