This month was the toughest yet! I rode through snow on the equator, along aqueducts, up river roads, down insane hiking trails and across the Colombian border to the Death Road.

I've been CyclingAbout The Americas for 16 months now, covering around 25,000km across eight countries. The journey so far has taken me up the highest road in the world (5815m/19078ft), across deserts, salt flats and along the Peru Divide, my favourite touring route in the world.
I have fallen 30 metres off a cliff, pushed my bike...
In biogeography, the páramo is a tropical alpine ecosystem with a predominance of scrubby vegetation. Páramo made up the majority of my ride this month, so it seemed like an appropriate name for this film! This episode is particularly special because it features Michael Dammer, one of the Trans Ecuador route designers who provides lots...
This Trans Ecuador Mountain Bike Route (TEMBR) film is adventure-packed with crazy mud, hike-a-bike, river crossings, insane hills, loose af descents, navigation woes, a cooking segment and the reason why I don't use a mountain bike on mountain bike trails.

This month has been a pretty wild ride thanks to some unseasonal snowfall here in Peru. A cold spell hit hard recently, killing hundreds of mountain people who didn't have the resources to keep warm. I was one of the lucky ones up around 5000M in a remote part of the country.
This video is the documentation of my ride from La Paz,...
It's been such a wild ride through the snow in the Andes this month. I've been blown away by the landscapes, the wildlife and the sheer terrain... this place is the real deal, and a true paradise for those who have adventure running through their veins.
Here are the photos and captions that I shared on social media this month.

This month in Bolivia I rode across the largest salt flat in the world and pedalled into the Yungas Mountains. I discovered a road with 52 hairpin turns, I may have found my favourite sealed road in the world, I found out about cocaine production, I was gifted lots of food and I cycled up "the world's most dangerous...
