A Thanksgiving weekend edition of the Pedalshift Project on which we cover some of the new additions to the site, an update on the Lake Ontario circumnav tour, connections and much more.
hey, it’s the direct download link for episode 009! (mp3)
Pedalshift has a new look
Pedalshift is also now on Instagram (@pedalshift) – hoping to use it to show off more of the sights on tours past and present. Would love to share your pictures on tour too!
One more thing… I’m starting an email newsletter – about once per month – filled with the same cool content as the podcast and the site. You can sign up for the Pedalshift newsletter here. Best of all… get a free bike touring pack guide and checklist just for signing up.
Hey, I want to hear from you – like for real: email or The Facebook, or even The Twitter. Stories, tours, ideas, whatever – as we grow, let’s share it all.
The Journal
It’s bike tour planning season now that the weather is less favorable in the Northeast US. I’ve been busily researching the circumnavigation of Lake Ontario for a May 2015 tour. Any interest in meetups in Rochester, Buffalo, Toronto, etc.? Shoot me an email!
The Lab
Holy sh*t, this water bottle fils while you ride!
Bike Touring Stories
Got a ton of great feedback about The Sweater, so we’ll do more of them. I’ll break those out into a new section of the podcast called Bike Touring Stories. If you have a funny, empowering, emotional or otherwise interesting story to share, I’d love to make that happen… email pedalshiftproject@gmail.com. You tell it, I’ll produce it! Episode 010 will include a new story: Louis Bike Touring Experiment #1 of 1. Look for it in a couple of weeks!
