Having cycled the southernmost part of Argentina just a few months before, we thought we knew what to expect from this remote region of Chile, well, we were very, very wrong! But let’s take a few steps back and let’s start at the beginning; we pedalled 5000 kms to Ushuaia from Buenos Aires but we […]

The following writing has a short story of its own:During the first year on the road, Marco wrote a monthly article for a publication called Bike Mag. While cleaning the gutter on his phone, he accidentally stumbled upon one of the first draft of this article and we decided to give it a good hand […]

We often say that there’s beauty to be found in every corner of our planet, and we stand firmly by that statement, however, it’s also true that some places are, for many different reasons, a lot more special than others; Torres del Paine is a great example of that! Although many claim this site to […]

We never thought that we would be so long on the road; 5 years and counting is a lot more than we would ever thought possible! Not surprisingly, the question we get asked the most is: “How do you manage economically?” This is what gave birth to the idea of writing a small article on […]

This year, I got to check bikepacking off my bucket list. I didn’t just check it off my list; I immersed myself in all things bike travel—from the ocean to the mountain—though not in one ride. My rides started as day trips, progressed to bike overnights, and concluded with a three-day bikepacking 80-mile ride. Bikepacking […]

Picture this: You hop on your bike in Washington, D.C. and start pedaling on a series of bike paths and peaceful sections of rail-trails. You angle northwest through Pennsylvania and cross Ohio, continuing across the Midwest into Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho until you reach Washington and cycle all the way to the Pacific Ocean. This […]

One of my favorite hobbies outside of bicycle touring is beach volleyball. I’m not very good, but I do enjoy the time at the beach and with old and new friends. Recently through an old friend, I found a group of other volleyball enthusiasts who took an interest in bicycle touring after hearing my stories […]

Gravel. Even the word sounds uncomfortable. At odds to my road biking world, the usual black tarmac lines swapped for the stark white trails. It’s riding, but not as we know it…

A hill climb podium position and the power of small victories. It’s all relative, right?

If a cycling God exists, they would live at the summit of Lago del Narèt. It’s not the longest, not the highest, not even the steepest. This climb needs no such gimmicks. It has beauty.

I can’t remember when I stopped counting. I know not what compels me to ride all day, traversing distances some people think twice about when driving. Anything less than 100 miles is now a short ride. When did that happen?

Mistakes. We all make them. For some the consequences are greater than others. Pedestrians, cyclists, drivers. We share one inescapable trait. We’re all human.

Beauty can lie within the ordinary. The humdrum. The good old commute.

A story more interesting than the subject. Clip on aero bars? Yawn. And yet my first ride took me by surprise. It was thrilling! My new found speed was electric, amplified by my new position closer to the ground. How quick?

A peek into the madness that is the amateur cyclist’s daily life. So Pro…

It will never happen to me. Yet it did. Humiliation, defeat, weakness. It wasn’t even a quick ride. Bump, gone, just like that. Dropped.

New Zealand. Everything is vast. The journey. The deep blue sea. Mountains as far as the eye can see. Landscapes that steal your soul. The number of tourists…
