It’s all downhill!
Canada to Mexico
I’m once again jumping on a bike for another epic two-wheeled tour. This time I’m heading down the west coast, 3,000 miles from Vancouver to Cabo San Lucas.
Every inch of the journey will be documented with words, pictures, tweets, skeets and of course…VIDEOS!
The goals are simple, just like riding a bike:
A.) Travel at a brisk 15MPH while discovering the America you can’t experience when wizzing by in a vehicle.
B.) I’ll be riding for the ‘People for Bikes’ campaign, gathering signatures to help build a national movement to improve cycling in our country.
C.) Raise MUCHO dinero for Community Cycles, my favorite bicycle loving-world saving-health promoting advocacy group–right in my hometown of lovely Boulder Colorado.
“I’m 31 and have never had a driver’s license, if I can ride thousands of miles on a bike, more people can think about leaving their car in the garage and instead ride bicycles around their communities, our planet needs our help.”
The ride will be as eco friendly as possible, no support cars allowed! I’ll pull a trailer with all my gear (shorts, shirts, peanut butter, 18 cans of beans) along with a computer and camera to broadcast the adventure to the world.
I’m a die-hard bicycle promoting goofball. Last summer across America was AMAZING and I can only imagine that this ride will be equally as special.
Here’s a video from last Summer’s ride to get you psyched up for this adventure
Let us know the route schedule (ish), so that us West Coasters can keep you company if you'd like it.
Thank you thank you thank you for the laughs during your singing tunes to make my office trip go smoother today. YOU ROCK! Best to your West Coast adventure and you inspire me!
Infinite love and gratitude,
