"A prêt-à-porter adventure can be had by any weekend warrior willing to sign a Visa slip and a liability waiver. But Kevin Vallely's tests of endurance are of an entirely different scale. Part of a new breed of multi-sport adventure-athlete, the 38-year-old Montreal native, Cambridge-educated architect and former road cyclist got turned on to the wild life when he relocated to Vancouver." |
