VIDEO: Iago Garay Lives The Island Life on Tenerife

Off the coast of Northern Africa lies a small archipelago that’s home to sandy beaches, stunning volcanic peaks and warm weather all year around: the Canary Islands. It's a little bit of Hawaii in the middle of the Atlantic. Turns out it’s not just a dreamy vacation spot for beachgoers – the islands actually have some of the wildest mountain bike trails in the world. As part of his Not Far From Home video series (filmed with the intention of showcasing his local riding spots in Spain – Tenerife technically qualifies despite it being a two-hour flight across the ocean), Iago Garay gathered his friends to go shred said trails to bits and indulge in some of the best the island has to offer.
