"One of the biggest things that helped me rediscover who I was and who I was going to be as a paralyzed man was getting out on our local trails here on the peninsula," he told INSIDER.
Mackay enjoyed it so much, in fact, that he decided to ride through the entire state to advocate for accessible nature trails.
The result: Ian's Ride, an epic 11-day journey spanning some 350 miles.
