Last Thursday I received a message from Delta that our flight to Iceland was cancelled. We knew it was unlikely we would be allowed to go, but we hung on until the last minute, hoping it would work out. It’s so disappointing. Everyone was super gracious & refunded our money for our houses, excursions, rentals…

Happy New Year!
New Years Day in Ecuador. It was a great day! Pablo arrived at the apartment at 9:30am with our driver Nicholas. We planned a trip up to Cotopaxi National Park. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time! Quito sits at almost 10,000 feet. When the weather is good you can…
Ecuador Itinerary
Planning for Ecuador was easier than Alaska for sure, but also more challenging due to conflicting information online & lack of information. The bike rental was easy from Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental. They will provide us with a bike, GPS, hotel arrangements each night & a couple of activities along the way. They will also…
Venturing into the Southern Hemisphere
Our next trip is scheduled. Like every other trip before this, we are super excited & thankful for the opportunity to continue exploring the world together! We’ll spend 16 days in Ecuador with our friends Rob & Staci. We’ll travel about 1,600 miles through the country. This will be one of our shorter rides, but…
Ely to Durango, CO
Today I logged into the blog for the first time in months. It has been a crazy year and although we have ridden quite a bit, I couldn’t even remember my last post. To my surprise, I found this one saved as a draft from June 26, 2016. I am sure I had bigger plans…
Crater Lake
What a spectacular day! Well, I nearly froze to death a couple of times, and for the first time ever on a bike I had slush building up on my visor, so it wasn’t an easy ride, but it was super gorgeous!! We headed out of Roseburg towards Crater Lake this morning. The ride up…
Horseback Riding Lake Louise
Beautiful horseback riding in Banff! Getting lost turned this 7 hour ride into 9 hours.
2016 West Coast Itinerary
Our bike adventure started in 2003 when we bought our first bike, a 2003 Buell Lightning. For the first three years we explored “local” roads & landmarks in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and Wisconsin. In 2006 I brought home Shawn’s Uly as a birthday surprise! With the comfortable upgrade, and the ability to carry more luggage, our trips got…
West Coast 2016
Summer is officially here and we are gearing up for a great ride to the West Coast. We’ll also swing North for a few days at Banff with Rob & Staci. Although it isn’t as epic as Alaska, we will cover close to 7,000 miles. On this trip we’ll visit 14 states and 2 Canadian…
