The Interview

FOTS Andrew and Stephanie are from Denver, Colorado and embarked on a big adventure in June. Beginning from home in Colorado, they packed up their bikes and gear and boarded Amtrak for a multiday trip to Pittsburgh. The plan was to bike to DC via the GAP and C+O, but as they’ll share… things don’t always go as planned, and that’s ok. Amtrak. Bicycle touring. It's a great hour of podcasty goodness.

 

Andrew is all over the Internets focusing on his love of film photography and riding steel framed bikes. Andrew shares a bunch of amazing photos from their bike tour on his website. Check Andrew out at shootfilmridesteel.com and on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram at @shootfilmride.

 

Stephanie? Stephanie claims she's a luddite (her words) but we think she's super cool... even though I can't hyperlink to said coolness.
