Imagine cycling through 108 countries, spanning six continents and covering 163,000 kilometres. In this episode guest Jacob Ashton shares his experiences from doing just that.

Jacob’s story begins with a simple desire to travel. Initially considering sailing, he soon realised that cycling was a more affordable and fulfilling way to see the world.

Jacob's first major bike tour was a four-year journey from 2016 to 2020, covering 100 countries and 124,000 kilometres across six continents. He has since continued to explore the world on two wheels, and is currently on an open ended cycle tour with his partner.

I delved deeper into what it’s like to live this lifestyle, the challenges faced, and the motivations behind such an epic adventure. What's it like to be immersed in new cultures and landscapes for so long? How does one handle the mental and physical toll of perpetual travel? Tune in to listen to Jacob share his experiences of such expansive cycle travel.
