Introduction to the New Blog

After having spent nearly a year dreaming, planning, and preparing for our first bicycle touring adventure, Johanna and I stand just a week away from something big. For several weeks during the month of August, we will be riding our Cannondale Tandem from Portland, Oregon to San Francisco, California.

Along the way, we'll be doing lots of camping, sightseeing, eating, and some 800+ miles of riding, too! Johanna and I were looking for the best way to keep friends and family in the loop as we make our way south and after much social media studying, have decided this blog will be our forum. We'll also be reviewing routes/lodging/dining and a number of touring/camping products along the way.

Whether you're interested in touring yourself, want to live the trip vicariously through our adventure blog, or just want to confirm that we haven't gone off the reservation, enjoy!

Yours Truly,

Trevor and Johanna Thorpe
