Ep. 855: Racing the Tour Divide in Your 60's - Revisited - Marty Johnson

Bikepacking: Marty 65-Year-Old Races Tour Divide 6th Time – 2750-Mile Off-Road MTB from Canada to Mexico, Proving Adventurous Years Peak Later.

Originally aired on January 27, 2020

When Marty's 60th birthday came rolling around, he knew he needed to do something adventurous that took him out of his normal routine and into an entirely different frame of mind. From that longing came the idea to race in the Tour Divide, a 2,750-mile, mostly off-road, mountain bike race from Canada to Mexico along the Continental Divide.

Now, at the age of 65, Marty is gearing up this June for another TD attempt. His 6th time on the trail.

Our most adventurous years don't have to be the earliest. In fact, they can be the most recent. I hope Marty's story helps you see your own adventure in 2022.
