It all began in 2014, when I set out on a 2½-month bicycle journey from New York to California—4,173 miles across the country. Somewhere in the vast Nevada desert, between long climbs and quiet stretches of open road, I started thinking about how I could share the experience and my growing passion for bicycle touring. That’s when the idea for this adventure cycling journal was born—a place to share adventure cycling stories, gear reviews, and short films. On the road, every moment feels amplified—the conversations with strangers, the grind up a mountain pass, or even the inevitable flat tire. Each experience shapes the journey in a way only cyclists can truly understand. Through this journal, my goal is to inspire others to ride further, explore deeper, and discover the world one pedal stroke at a time.
