Nepal Adventure

In 2015 and 2016 I competed in The Yak Attack; the worlds highest (and one of the toughest) mountain bike races in Nepal. The event is a stage race that climbs up to 5416m (17770ft) and follows trails into some of the most remote places of Nepal. As a competitor I was able to capture some amazing photographs along the 500km race route through the Himalaya. 

Both of my 2015 and 2016 trips had articles and photographs published at Pinkbike and Mtb Mag Asia.
