In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I sit down with Skyler Bolks to talk about his recent Jokes and Spokes Tour, a 1000-mile bikepacking journey that took him from comedy venue to comedy venue across the American Midwest. Skyler shares the inspiration behind this unconventional fusion of stand-up comedy and long-distance cycling, and how he used the tour not only to test his endurance but to explore new ways of connecting with audiences.

We dive into the mental and physical preparation that went into the ride, the gear choices that helped him balance performance and practicality, and the challenges of performing after long days in the saddle. Skyler also opens up about life on the road—where he slept, how he recovered, and the unexpected encounters that shaped the experience.

From his background as a college athlete and his evolution as a comic, to the emotional highs and lows of solo touring, Skyler offers a unique perspective on what it means to chase your creative passions by bike. Whether you're a cyclist, a performer, or just someone who loves a good story, this episode is packed with humor, insight, and inspiration.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I connect with Nathan Siemans to talk about the Lost Elephant and the Cold Ride. Originally called the Kootenay Gravel Grinder, the name was changed to The Lost Elephant to help people recognize that it was far from being just a gravel ride. As bikepacking was gaining in popularity, more and more people were coming out to ride the event, often without realizing that a gravel bike with 40c tires wasn't going to cut it. Through the involvement of Nathan and a handful of other volunteers, they helped grow a bikepacking event that changes the route each year, creating a new challenge for those that continue to show up time and again.

In the latter part of our discussion, Nathan also shared his passion for fatbiking, and his plan behind creating a challenging winter race that allows people to test themselves in the harshest of conditions. With winter 2025 being the first running of the event, it was great to hear how it came to be and what aspects of creating this event were the most challenging.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I've had the chance to connect with Chris Mahoney, President of Go RVing Canada, a not for profit focused on promoting the RV lifestyle. After an initial discussion, we thought this could be a really interesting podcast, as both the bikepacking and RVing lifestyles are centred around exploration and spending time in nature. Through our discussion, I learned that Chris is a long-time mountain biker that likes to bring his bikes along when going RVing in the summers. He's also a keen bike adventurer and we spent a bit of time talking about some of his past and upcoming bike adventures. More specifically, throughout this conversation, Chris and I spoke about how RVs can be a great catalyst for bikepacking adventures, some amazing bicycle destinations accessible by RV, the benefits to taking up the RV lifestyle, what some common misconceptions about RVing are, and of course, affordability and how they compare to other types of holidays. We also talked about the rise in popularity of the camper van and how more and more young people are attracted to the RV lifestyle, particularly with more and more people choosing jobs that allow them to work remotely. I hope you enjoy this episode.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I have the chance to talk with Chris Smith, better known as the Blind Guy Biking on Instagram. Chris has defied the odds on many occasions throughout his life. While Stargardt’s Disease is an inherited genetic condition that causes central vision loss, it usually occurs during childhood, resulting in total vision loss. Chris was fortunate, in the sense that it came about in his 20s, leaving him peripheral vision, and the ability to do some pretty amazing things. He also had the chance to experience growing up as a normally sighted person, allowing him to develop a love of cycling.

Throughout the episode, we discuss his background growing up in Connecticut, his journey through vision loss due to Stargardt's Disease in his early twenties, and how he rediscovered biking as a mode of transportation and passion. Chris shares his experiences from the Tour Divide, a 2745 mile or 4418km backcountry ride from Banff, Canada to the USA/Mexican border, where he faced unique challenges, such as navigating, resupplying, and tackling rugged terrain. He also talks about the immense support from friends, family, and the cycling community, which was crucial for his success. Chris' story highlights how he turned a daunting journey into a successful fundraiser, raising over $30,000 for the Foundation Fighting Blindness. We delve deep into his remarkable resilience, the camaraderie formed on the trail, and insights into overcoming adversity. In completing this challenge, Chris is one of only a very small group of people that have ridden this route legally blind.

As usual, it's a pleasure to get to chat with Meaghan and I hope you enjoy our conversation.
