FEATURED VEHICLE
THE ACCESSORY DREAM GUIDE
59
The first accessory he recommends adding is tires: “I think it’s important that the owners really
ensure that they have the right tires for their type of adventuring. Most stock vehicles come
with acceptable tires, but a vehicle will do so much more with the right tires.”Although Davy
says it is hard to be specific, he settles on a favourite brand: “I have Smittybilt bumpers. The
prices are usually a good deal”. His best accessory is his Limb Raiser kit, “but mostly wherever
I go, people stop me and ask what the cables are for!” Next, he plans to “add a Ursa Minor
J-30 RTT”.
Davy also has plans for his next road trip:“I
really can’t wait to go back to Moab. The week-
end there was just mind-boggling and super
awesome. Locally, I really like the trails around
Barkerville BC, and visiting the mountain tops in
the area. There is something truly striking about
getting to watch the sun set from a mountain
top.” He just came back from a trip with NCO
Adventures from PG to Barkerville in June, “with
the support of Raven/NSOR. After that, a few
small trips, and possibly back to Moab for 2018!”
His furthest trip to date sounds quite similar to
his next one: “My last US tour took us to Vegas, then overland to Moab. Then the Grand
Canyon, Mojave Desert, Death Valley, Mammoth Lakes California, Portland, and home
again!” That adventure presented seriously extreme conditions, some from nature and
some intentional: “In the Mojave, the wind was blowing so hard, trucks and trailers were
being blown off the highway!” “Driving almost vertical up and down on the Slick Rock of
Moab. Climbing rock faces where all you can see is the sky is truly exciting.”
Davy is a true outdoor enthusiast who not only enjoys nature’s beauty but works tirelessly to protect it. He enjoys giving back to the
community with fund raisers and events. On the weekends you can find him panning for gold, off-roading, camping or working to clean
up the trails.
