Lovisa Tillgren | Solo Travel on a Bike
In this episode of the Bike Tour Adventures podcast I have the chance to connect with Lovisa Tillgren. Lovisa got her start to bike touring while backbacking through Guatemala when she decided it would be more fun on a bike. Selling most of her gear and strapping what was left onto the bike led to a multitude of adventures and challenges. When the Corona Pandemic shuttered international travel, she went back to Sweden to build a new touring rig and plan her next adventure. Having now travelled throughout Europe crossed N. America and cycled the length of Central America, Lovisa is back to figuring out the next stage of her adventure.

Kyle Henning | Cycling Low to High in Africa
In this episode of the Bike Tour Adventures podcast, Kyle Henning and I speak about his first experience bike touring, which, surprisingly, was from the lowest point to the highest point in Africa. We also talk about some of the various volunteer programs that Americans can work in such as Americorps and the Peace Corps, what it's like to live in Ethiopia for 2 years and really dive into cycling through the region he worked. Ten years after his first adventure, Kyle wrote a book called, "From Afar: One man's human-powered adventure from the lowest point on the African continent to the summit of its highest mountain." All proceeds from sales of the book are going to be split between two charitable organizations: one in the USA and one in Ethiopia where he used to live. More recently, Kyle and a friend have started a long-term project that they call the Low to High Challenge, with the goal of visiting all the islands in the world with a mountain of 3000 metres or higher and riding from the lowest point on the island and getting all the way to the summit of the highest point.

Marc & Heather | 8 Hours of Hurtin in Haliburton
In this episode of the Bike Tour Adventures podcast I have the chance to speak with Marc and Heather, creators and directors of the 8 Hours of Hurtin' in Haliburton gravel bike race. I first got to know Marc a few years back when I first heard about the race. Unfortunately, at the time I missed the registration and couldn't participate. Then Covid came and made everything harder yet. Finally after 3 years of delays, I had the chance to participate and thought it would be great to have them on the show to share about their passion project and their own cycling journeys.

Cory Ostertag | Bikepack Racing in Canada
In this episode of the Bike Tour Adventures podcast I have the chance to catch up with Cory Ostertag. As a life-long cyclist, Cory has run the gamut. From mountain biking to Cat 2 road bike racing, it was inevitable that Cory would at some point get involved in bikepack racing. Although new to the sport, Cory has done exceptionally well over the past two seasons, finishing 2nd in the 2021 iteration of the BC Epic, and taking the overall wins in 2022 riding the Buckshot and BC Epic and setting an impressive new FKT on the Log Drivers Waltz. I'm thrilled to learn more about him and hear his story.To support the Bike Tour Adventures podcast, follow the links below:https://www.patreon.com/bikepackadventures orhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bikepackadventures Join the RideWithGPS Bikepack Adventures ClubFind them at:INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/full_beans/142 Find me at…WEBSITE: http://www.biketouradventures.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPQl_pNcMZA-hHckhVrpmaw FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/biketouradventures/ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/bike_tour_adventures/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/BikeTourAdv ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bike-tour-adventures/id1464406852 Show SponsorsThe Bike Tour Adventures podcast is incredibly lucky to have some amazing corporate sponsors.

We also talked about cycling nutrition, not just for traditional touring, but also bikepacking and bikepack racing.

Ridecast: Canadian Shield 1000
In this episode of the Bike Tour Adventures podcast I'm recording a Ridecast on my ITT of the Canadian Shield 1000. I created this route as a means of showcasing some of the best riding in the Laurentian Mountains and to introduce a MTB bikepacking route to the region, incorporating as much single-track and double-track riding as possible into a long-distance bikepacking route. I hope you enjoy and keep on pedalling.To support the Bike Tour Adventures podcast, follow the links below:https://www.patreon.com/bikepackadventures orhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bikepackadventures Join the RideWithGPS Bikepack Adventures ClubFind me at…WEBSITE: http://www.biketouradventures.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPQl_pNcMZA-hHckhVrpmaw FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/biketouradventures/ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/bike_tour_adventures/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/BikeTourAdv ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bike-tour-adventures/id1464406852 Show SponsorsThe Bike Tour Adventures podcast is incredibly lucky to have some amazing corporate sponsors.
