Do you want to know what bicycle touring is all about? There is this challenge/reward process that keeps you engaged and looking to do more. Come along for the ride to watch how it changed my life and how it can change yours as well.
Bicycle Touring Utah, Part I - Cycling All 5 National Parks - S4 E27
With the Southern Rockies of Colorado behind me I set my plan in motion to see as much of Utah and its five National Parks during the next two weeks. But before I finish my first day crossing the border Im faced with the most challenging day of my 2024 tour yet. The Las Sal Mountains Pass was a challenge with heavy head winds and steady climbing towards the end of the day. Not to mention ending up on a freeway with hardly a shoulder in the middle of a pitch black dark night. How I managed to find an oasis of a stealth camp was a thing of wonder.

Cycling Over the Southern Rockies On My Lynskey GR300 Ti Bicycle - Cycling Across America - S4 E26
มุมมอง 5K21 วันที่ผ่านมา
I start this next stretch from Ouray after riding the Million Dollar Highway and waiting on a snowstorm to pass by. The first day I attempt to reach the box canyon town of Telluride, but things didn't go as planned. As often happens, I had no idea there was a legitimate pass to get there. Dallas Pass is just short of 10,000' in elevation but it is no joke. By the time I got to Placerville, 16 m...
Spooky Cycling On CO Highway 550 - Few Guard Rails to Your Death - Bicycle Tour Across USA - S4 E25
มุมมอง 9Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Colorado's Highway 550, between the Victorian Mining Towns of Silverton and Ouray, is also called the Million Dollar Highway. This is because of how much it cost to build it ($1M per mile) and/or because of its vast beauty. To get there I had to ride over Red Mountain Pass at over 11,000' in elevation during a snowstorm. This took lots of "getting going" but once I started from Silverton I ente...

Two high mountain passes on Colorado's Highway 550 were in my path cycling from Durango to Silverton. Took close to 6,000 feet of elevation gain in just over 50 miles to get there. The scenery of the San Juan Mountains was spectacular and two sets of downhill action rewarded me plenty. Silverton, a Victorian Mining Town, is nestled in a canyon surrounded by giant mountain tops in every directio...

Terrific Scenery Cycling Over Brazos Pass During Fall - Bicycle Touring North America - S4 E22
มุมมอง 6K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Now I'm deep into climbing and dropping on the Rockies and this one was far from easy. To get thru Brazos Pass you have to get in elevation and then keep constantly climbing and dropping over and over again up at the top before an insane 8.8 mile downhill towards Tierras Amarillas. The Aspen trees were in full fall color making for unreal scenery. This one is truly one of the most beautiful and...

Route 66, Interstate 40 and the Great Plains are now behind me and my route is now heading to the first of endless passes on my way west. The first one is called The Mora Wall at 9,500 feet in elevation. It's one of many high passes in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. This range is the most southeastern section of the Rockies. The second pass is part of what is known as the High Road To Taos whi...

The last of three installments of Route 66 from eastern Oklahoma, thru the panhandle of Texas, and now northeastern New Mexico. The "West" is now in full effect with outstanding open scapes and golden grasses as far as one can see. The route is a mix of old Route 66 with its unique towns, Interstate 40, and its quiet frontage roads. I say good by to this iconic stretch of road and head north to...

The Lone Star State is next as I ride across the country for a fifth time. This is also where I finally jump over the 100th meridian and into the Great Plains. Texas proved to be a formidable state to cover on two wheels because of its "no joke" head winds. I learned all about why this state's panhandle, along with Kansas, Colorado, northeastern New Mexico and Oklahoma, were jointly coined "The...

That's right, I'm on the Historic 66 and loving it. There is so much to see and it is plenty challenging. Continues rolling hills and inconsistent road shoulders with plenty of traffic make for alert riding conditions. Oklahoma City was plenty hectic and entertaining and I meet up with my friend, Mike.

Oklahoma is not what I expected. This is one of three episodes of the seven days it took me to get thru this state on my way to California. While visiting my fiends, the Gray's, I bailed hay, got my butt kicked playing Ping Pong, and eventually reached Route 66. This iconic road took me all the way to New Mexico, by the way.

Yep, I once again and for the third time got pulled over cycling American freeways. This time on the Cherokee Turnpike in Oklahoma. The trooper makes me push my bike up a steep overpass.
