Who are we?

Owner/operator – Andrew Skinner
Andrew was born and raised in Victoria. Upon graduating he left Victoria to see the world. In 1995, after 10 years of adventurous world travel, Andrew came back home and opened his first eco-tour company; Great Pacific Adventures. Six successful years later Andrew broadened his outdoor adventure portfolio and developed our cycle touring division; CycleTreks. Andrew has had many diverse and adventurous jobs. He has been a windsurf instructor in Mazatlan, Mexico, a scuba dive instructor and operator of a dive company in Cayman Islands, he has worked for Search and Rescue in both the Bahamas and the Gulf of Mexico and he was a treasure hunter in the Caribbean. Andrew's love of the outdoors is apparent in all of his endeavors and his attention to detail and customer service is obvious in everything he does.

Manager/Guide (and quintessential bike guru) - Rob Fawcett
What can we say about Rob other than riding is his passion and if he could find away to sleep while riding, we think he would! Rob has had a very diverse life; after graduating from the University of Manitoba with a Bachelor's degree in Business and a Master's degree in Accounting, Rob went to work for Ernst and Young in Toronto. He soon realized that accounting was not his passion and left to seek out other adventures. Since then, Rob has been an organic juice business owner, an ESL instructor in Taiwan, an inspirational speaker, and a bike courier. For more on Rob, check out his site at www.robfawcett.ca.
