The Pine Barrens
When I said goodbye to La Ferme des Jarouilles, I got on my bike with only the vague destination of The Pyrenees in mind. I knew that this mountain range, which separates Spain from France, is known for its farmstead … Continue reading
The Road to Tomato Heaven
When, once again, it was time to hit the road, I grabbed some cheese out of the aging room and waited for a sunny day. I didn’t have to wait long. My next destination was another farm with both cows … Continue reading

After a meditative and rainy night of wild camping in a thickly planted pine logging forest, while standing in a muddy ditch trying to bungee my tent to my bicycle, I slipped and fell into the bike. I got up, … Continue reading
Meditation on a Worn-Out Brake Pad
Two and a half years ago, before I had any real bicycle touring ambitions, I decided that I wanted to learn how to fix my own bicycle. At the time, I had an ancient, very cute and fairly functional baby … Continue reading
Greetings from the Ancestral Homeland
I arrived in Dublin by boat from Holyhead. Though it was a fun city, after weeks of English and Welsh countryside, it was a bit overwhelming. I was tired, and ready to get back out there. Luckily, it took me … Continue reading
Where’s the Road to Penrhyndeudraeth?
(And other unpronounceable questions) When I left Coed Hills, my next real destination was a goat farm on an island off the coast of southern Ireland. My plan was to ride up through Wales to Holyhead, get a ferry to … Continue reading
