A Life, Built in Motion

Adventure isn’t something I save for someday.

It’s something I build into my life, one decision at a time.

MADCTY is about staying in motion—physically, creatively, and mentally. It grew out of a need to live more deliberately. To make things with my hands. To get outside more often. To choose effort over comfort and curiosity over routine. Some days that looks like training hard or chasing trails. Other days it means building, fixing, learning, and figuring things out as I go.

Movement changes how you see everything.

Over time, that mindset started shaping how I travel and how I design my life. Less rush. More intention. Fewer walls between work, rest, and play. Spaces that support experience instead of distracting from it. Projects that serve real use, not just ideas.

MADCTY documents that process.

The adventures.

The builds.

The learning curve.

It’s a place for people who want more from their time—who feel most alive when they’re engaged, exploring, and creating. People who don’t need constant extremes, just forward motion. People who believe that a good life is something you actively shape.

This isn’t about escaping life.

It’s about showing up for it.

If you’re curious about building a more mobile, experience-driven way of living—or just want encouragement to try the thing you keep putting off—you’ll feel at home here.

Welcome to MADCTY.

A life in motion.

Built with intention.

I walked in looking for nothing, and rolled out with a motorcycle that would shape the next decade of my life: a Honda CB550 Four. The bike was older than me by a single year, stock, rough around

Pitching… um errrr Hanging your Hammock

Featured, Hiking and Camping|

For some reason after years of tenting my brain wants to call it pitching when you are setting up your sleeping quarters... It's been 2 years since I began to hammock camp when possible and I've had the joys of experiencing it a variety of locals from the Red Rock beauty of Sedona AZ, to the Jasper AB in the Majestic Rocky Mountains. Hammock camping is an increasingly popular
