Chi è Troy Barry

Quite simply......I love being outside. Preferably on dirt or in the snow utilizing human powered tools. These tools often change with the seasons as I find myself riding in the dirt and on the snow with my two wheeled tools. I also find myself walking, climbing and crawling up peaks with my AT or Tele setups on my feet. Why? I have an innate need and desire to smell the smell of the backcountry and feel the exposure and accountability the backcountry puts in my soul. The world slows down in the backcountry, the distractions go away, I gain focus and attentiveness to my surroundings here. My zen balance comes back to center here. The backcountry reconnects us to the most basic elements by stripping away the media, the banners, bright lights and bullshit! My adventures can stem from the need of making it to a destination like a peak or a backcountry fly-fishing hole. Other times its a race or backcountry journey, whether it be formal, with buddies or a lone push just to feel alive again.
