Hopefully you've watched Episode Two, and have a basic understanding of "how" the relationship between bikers and crew will function.

Here's what we are looking for: A small group of bicyclists - already planning to ride coast to coast (west to east), preferably along Adventure Cycling's Northern Route, during the months June & July of this year.
The less money you have as a group: the better. The more you are fundamentally opposed to staying in hotels and hitching rides: the better.

So, how does this work? Easy - simply introduce yourself. You can do this by sending an email. You can write a blog post and leave a link in the comments of this site. You can use your friend's camera to post a video on Blip.tv, Revver or YouTube. Contact us through Pedal's mySpace.

Be creative. This process is simply an introduction. The more you include - the better for starting a conversation.

The deadline for introductions is May 1st.

(Note: I should make it clear that Pedal is not a safety net... meaning Pedal will not be financially involved or supportive in anyone's travels. We are merely searching for people who are comfortable in being tailed - as unobtrusively as possible, of course.)

    I wish I had seen this 6 months ago!

    Would you have been up for riding across the country? :)
  • victoria 2 years ago
    Absolutely! I'm not sure I'd really make it, but... I'd try. How long did you have to train before your trip, and what sort of training did you do? I'd still like to try a cross-country ride some day.
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 2 years ago
    Anyone can do it - it just takes patience :) I didn't train very much for my first trip, a little under a month of just doing fun rides around town. But... really you kinda' train on the trip itself.
  • victoria 2 years ago
    How long was your trip, and how far did you ride? How much did it cost? Where did you sleep? What did you pack?

    So many questions!!

    Victoria - how did I not see this comment you wrote back to me :( I know it's been 10 months, but :P It will bug me if I don't respond.

    My first trip took me and my friend, Tim, 55 days. We slept in parks, school fields (school was out for the summer), and sometimes on the side of the road (when times were tough).

    We packed light - and bought tons of goodwill clothes :P
