With roots in Boulder, CO, the mountains have been a formative force in Joey Schusler’s life. However, after nearly a decade of racing—climbing the ranks from local races to the UCI World Cup—his focus began to shift toward filmmaking, seeing how far his bike could take him, not just how fast he could go. In the years since, he’s traveled the world with his camera, bike and best friends, exploring rugged and remote areas, telling the stories of places and their people. For Joey, adventuring is not only a lifestyle, but an art form.

Situated at the confluence of the Fraser and Nechako rivers, Prince George is a welcoming bike community that blends small city sophistication with access to well-built trails and intuitive flow. Here, riders will find crowd-free examples of British Columbia’s legendary riding terrain, complete with skinnies and a northern challenge that tips the difficulty scale slightly higher. Four riding zones surround the city, including the prominent Pidherny Recreation Site. Ride along with local legend Glenn King as he chases the heels of Jacob Mullen on their favorite sequence of Pidherny trails, making smooth work of Prince George’s intimidating yet achievable and skillful woodwork.
