Listen Later

On this episode…a wrap up of the border to border tour from sunny San Diego, connections with listeners, plus an interview with a few of the people I biked with.

The Journal
  • Tour wrap up and thoughts
  • The Fish Taco Challenge
  • My bike has a name: Sequoia sempervirens
  • Tour Journals podcast - pedalshift.net/tourjournals for a day by day look at the tour
  • Mini tour in NH has been scuttled - I hope to do a cabin tour soon, perhaps an Amtrak aided one with the folder to shake things up.
  • Do not break your ribs or clavicle. I understand it sucks.
    • Connections
    • Episode 004 followup… Scott Morgan (@scottmacs) mentioned his first bike was a modified mountain bike with a rack.
    • Joe Bruce (@joebruce) listened in on the show and iis going to be doing the border to border tour soon
    • Brock Dittus (@brockmon/@sprocketpodcast) would have rocked some Dandy Warhols accompanying vocals with me downhill in the rain a few weeks back in Oregon
    • And many, many more… thank you for all the favorites and follows the past month plus!
      • The Lab

      MVPs of the tour:

      • Schwalbe tires - no flats!
      • Arm coolers
      • New Trent battery + dynamo hub
      • Apple: iPhone 5, 11” Macbook Air and iPad mini with retina screen
