Meet DAVID

AVID STORY-TELLER, DAVID PHARAND IS YOUR EXPERT LOCAL MOUNTAIN BIKING GUIDE, YUKON, CANADA

I am one of those people who believes they can recall their first wobbly, self-powered pedal strokes down the path without the training wheels. It was that sense of exhilaration and how the whole world opened to endless possibilities that I can recall. Here I am some 40 years later, settled in the Yukon and still believing that biking is the key to adventure.

“I love being a mountain biking guide, Yukon, when you ride with me not only will you get good stories and jokes but history and culture of the Yukon from past to present. I’m constantly learning more and love the facts and fictions that have made this place in the world so incredible.

I have been teaching and guiding up here for over 20 years now and when we ride together, you will undoubtedly hear some stories about the history and the culture. I am constantly learning more about this place and I love the facts and fictions that have made this place so fascinating for me.  I look forward to sharing a story, my favourite trails, and the local establishments that refuel my rides.
