We are a Melbourne based couple, soon to be eating and peddling our way from Anchorage, Alaska to Tierro del Fuego, Argentina!
We have been on a number of multi week cycle tours through Tasmania, New Zealand and Bali during the last few years and have dreamt of taking an extended career break to travel the Americas. After Jo’s father died of cancer, we decided to make that dream a reality.
We love travelling at bike speed because you really get to experience a country up close – all the sights, sounds and smells – instead of whizzing by in a car. We are looking forward to the freedom of the open road, meeting some amazing people and eating our way through the Americas!

I am a keen road cyclist and mountain biker who loves travel, meeting people and learning about different cultures. I have just cycled across Africa with Tour d’Afrique, which was an amazing experience. I am now looking forward to a new challenge – an unsupported transcontinental cycle tour through the Americas!

I have been cycling for the past 7 years and it has become a huge part of my life. I commute to work and road cycle socially with friends. I also love travelling, learning languages and experiencing foreign cultures, and above all … eating!
