WHO I AM
For the Love of Mountain Biking
My name is Jake Johnstone (He/Him) and I created The Mind Mountain to combine my passions for Mountain Biking, Coaching, and Mental Performance. Originally from Australia, I was inspired by the laid-back mountain sports scene I experienced while working in New Zealand. This fueled my lifelong passion for adventure and spurred the move to BC in search of a bigger playground. As a self-confessed mountain sports addict, I enjoy personal exploration and growth through my riding. An ideal day for me starts with riding a ‘friendly’ climbing trail from my mountainside home, then descending a healthy mix of tech and flow.
