A 6-day human-powered expedition for GoBundance Men / Salida, CO!
OVERVIEW:
Grab life big three ways in Colorado this summer! Summit the sacred 14er Mt. Shavano, mountain bike the epic Colorado Trail, then paddle your own kayak through the world-renowned whitewater of Browns Canyon on the Arkansas River. This one-of-a-kind journey is truly expeditionary: you power your own transitions between sports, sleep three nights under the stars, and arrive by river in Salida - Colorado’s adventure capital.
Then there’s the fourth word: Thrive. You’ve taken risks, faced uncertainty, built credibility, and you refuse to stop growing. Maybe you’re celebrating big wins. Maybe you’re still climbing, rebuilding, or wondering what comes next. Wherever you are on your journey, you’ll share the trail with an intimate group of men who get it.
This is not a suffer fest. It’s real adventure, unfiltered camaraderie, and rare space to think about what makes your life extraordinary: the life your success was always supposed to create. Never mountain biked or paddled whitewater? No worries. Novices are welcome, and certified guides from BE and Browns Canyon Rafting will be paddling alongside you. Mountain bikes and kayaks are included.
MORE THAN AN ADVENTURE:
Every sport on this journey comes with a big question, and every campfire comes with a conversation to match. Each evening, the campfire conversation follows the day’s adventure: perspective after the hike, freedom after the ride, courage after the river.
Hike / Perspective. Honor your journey! See beyond the latest business scoreboard, whether you’re thriving or in a difficult chapter. Appreciate how far you’ve come, then decide which mountain is worth climbing next.
Bike / Freedom. Travel light! Carry what matters by releasing what no longer serves you. Rediscover the simple joy of movement, laughter, friendship, and gratitude.
Kayak / Courage. Brace for the rapids! The current isn’t yours to control, but your line is. Prepare for uncertainty, recognize where you’re vulnerable, and meet life’s challenges with courage, composure, and integrity.
Thrive / Identity + Action. Look beyond the titles (leader, husband, father, founder, friend) to the values that anchor you when life changes. Then on our final evening in Salida, you’ll bring it all together by turning your insights into a personal blueprint you can put to work at home.

At bike camp near Browns Creek, we’ll enjoy a warm, hearty dinner and a fireside conversation. Then, off to some much-needed z’s. Solid work today!

With the summit behind us and our feet used to the pedals, we’ll bike down to the Arkansas waters to meet our river guides at Hecla Junction to begin our whitewater journey, which includes safety and proficiency training.
