The Pedalshift Project 111: Tour Journals Vol 9: Olympic Peninsula (Part 1)

Mar 22, 2018

In the first of a two-parter, I thought I'd bring Pedalshift Tour Journals: Vol. 9: Olympic Peninsula directly to The Pedalshift Project! Join me and my trust Brompton for 4 days of transit-aided bicycle touring from Washington, DC to Seattle to the Olympic Peninsula and wrapping things up in Astoria, Oregon. This week features the machinations of getting from DC to a tent in the shadows of the Olympic Mountains (if there were, y'know... sun) and the first very soggy day of riding.

 

Live Baby Live

Coming in April... in the meantime, let me know what you want the topic on the next live show to be!

Music

You've been hearing about Jason Kent and his music for many fine episodes. Their latest album may be their best yet. Go get it.
