PODCAST

Bikepack Adventures Podcast

I am a traveler, cyclist, expat and teacher with over 15 years experience living abroad in six different countries. As a passionate cyclist I have seen the world by bike and has toured in some truly amazing places, such as Sweden, Germany, Japan, most of SE Asia and of course Canada. During that time, I have traveled to over 40+ countries and met countless travelers, cyclists, and other expats. While traveling by bike, I decided that I wanted to connect the touring and bikepacking community

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I have the chance to catch up with Jim and Mary Boate. I first met Jim and Mary while out for a bike ride in the Gatineau Park in the fall of 2022. After a quick chat that lasted until the turn-off to Mackenzie King Estates, I was certain that I wanted to get them on the podcast at some point to share their journey.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I have Matt Kadey on the show to talk about the Great Northern Bikepacking Route. Matt had previously need on the podcast in January 2022, so I would highly encourage you to skip back to Episode 122 if you haven't yet listened to it. In that episode we talk a lot more about bikepacking in Ontario and about his motivations towards route development and creation. In this episode we mostly focus on the GNBR, which, once completely tested and

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I take a little time to record a solo episode where I talk through my recent attempt on the Canadian Shield XL, a 1200km adventure that takes the rider through a large swath of Western Quebec, from the Ouareau Forest to the north of Montreal, all the way up to Mont Laurier in the north, Otter Lake in the West and Chelsea, Quebec in the South. With an elevation gain of approximately 16,000m, but more realistically closer to 20,000m, this route

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, Meaghan and I talk about bikepacking in the Canadian Shield region of Ontario and Quebec. Over the 24 days she spent in the area, Meaghan rode somewhere close to 2000km, riding the Loop des Loups, Canadian Shield 400 and Log Driver's Waltz, setting overall FKTs on the CS400 and Log Driver's Waltz. I was so grateful to have Meaghan as the keynote speaker of the inaugural Canadian Shield Bikepacking Summit, and for all the opportunity to talk about

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I have the chance to speak with JaBig, while sitting in my backyard watching my dog run circles around us. I had first messaged him a year ago, but he was quite busy and we couldn't make it work. It just so happened that this year we had the chance to connect while he was staying with his sister in Ottawa, before taking on his next challenge cycling from North Cape, Norway to Tarifa, Spain, in a continued effort to fundraise for World Bicycle

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I connect with Erik de Brun, one of the founders of Redshift Sports. I'm very excited to have Erik on the show for several reasons. I have been using their products since 2020 when I bikepacked across Western Canada, and have been fortunate enough to be sponsored by them since 2021. I really value the innovations they have been doing in the world of bikes and am always happy to see what they come out with next.Redshift Sports was founded in 2013 by

Colin Unsworth | Naked Across Britain

2023/05/26

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I have a chance to speak with Colin Unsworth. What's interesting about Colin is that he is a naturalist, a re-wilder and lives on a canal boat. He calls himself a free-wilder, preferring to be naked in nature. In the summer of 2022, Colin and his partner Sadie, rode a tandem bike 1000 miles from John O'Groats to Land's End in the United Kingdom. The catch is that they did it totally in the buff. Throughout today's episode we talk about the

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I finally have the opportunity to learn a bit more about Sofiane Sehili. When I first reached out to Sofiane over a year ago, he told me that he's done a ton of podcasts and that he'd be happy to come on the show, so long as our conversation is on something new. After following Sofiane and his partner's adventure throughout SE Asia this past winter, I thought this was the perfect opportunity to have him share his adventure and talk about bike

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I had the chance to connect with Jerry Kopack. It's quite interesting, because he had recently been on a couple other podcasts, but I felt that there was so much I still wanted to learn about him, and figured there is no better time than the present. When Jerry first reached out, I thought he just wanted to promote his book, but surprisingly, we didn't talk too much about his book and instead spent our time talking about his journey from working

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I have a chance to speak with Greg Andre-Barrett, someone who has been on my radar since I saw he was tackling the ONXL. The ONXL is a series of connected bikepacking routes throughout Ontario, which account for over 6000km of predominantly off-road touring. After doing a little more research into Greg, I realized he has bikepacked all over the world, and that he is just an amazing human being. From his volunteer work getting bikes to those less

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures podcast, I have a chance to dive deep into cold biking with Doug Dunlop. A veteran winter biker with decades of experience riding in the winter, Doug was one of the first people to reach out with advice when I complained of cold feet this winter when I got a fatbike. Doug has participated in numerous winter biking events, countless overnighters and was also on the start line of the first Iditarod Trail Invitational after it changed from being the Iditabike

I go into detail as to how I decided to make this more of a grass-roots event designed with the intention of making it accessible and affordable for all people. After things snowballed and the event grew bigger and more complex than I had originally planned for, I was lucky enough to have some great friends reach out to discuss and bring me back on track

Funnily enough, about 2 weeks before recording this podcast, Nathan and I had a chance to meet up for coffee in Chelsea, the day before he was going to be catching his flight to Europe to continue with his bicycle world tour. Nathan's cross-Canada adventure is quite unlike any I've heard of before. Rathern than follow the

Through that journey he discovered fatbiking and is constantly pushing himself to take on greater challenges. With the ultimate goal of participating in the Iditarod Trail Invitational in Alaska, he has taken part in a several
