The route...

While the route we are planning is by no means finalized, here is a general preview. We will begin at the Canadian border near Bellingham, WA hit Seattle, Portland, and Eugene inland and then head to the coast. Along the California coast we'll ride through Eureka, Arcata, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and down to San Diego finishing at the Mexican border. Very soon we will post maps of the route.

sponsors? donations? support?

We are currently seeking sponsors for our ride and donations for our cause (Madsen Cycles world bike project). Aside from monetary funds we will be looking for places to stay along the way, places/events to promote bicycles as transportation, general support, people to cheer us on, etc.

If you or someone you know is a great supporter of cycling and would like to contribute in any way please contact us or leave a comment below.

Raskol Ink.

Our friends at Raskol Ink have been nice enough to offer a couple of their great hoodies to keep us warm along the ride. check them out at raskolink.com.

means of transportation.

Madsen Cycles has been kind enough to provide us with two of their bucket model cargo bikes. For more information on the bikes check out madsencycles.com. Here is a photo of Nic and Allison riding one together, of course Nic is in the back.
