Riding a bike creates a connectivity to the world around you that car travel misses. You are traveling at a speed that slowly lets the landscape unfold around you. On a bike tour, you become one with the land, rolling over hills, traversing mountains and watching the light and shadows change with every revolution of a well greased wheel. The United States is covered in roads that connect us to one another. The boundaries of far way places crumble away when we travel. It is easy to get swept away with wanderlust when you travel by bike.
Bike touring is an accessible way for the budget traveler to take back a weekend, explore a forgotten path, and overall, get a sense of how life can be hospitable to the weary traveler looking for a place to bed down for a night.
This blog is an exploration of traveling on two wheels, balancing life, and traveling on a budget. Journey on!
