The PlanWe will be starting our journey just north of Portland, Oregon on August 25th. From here we will be biking to the coast. We will be fully sustained along our journey and biking and surfing the wild places we love. We will be making stops in the great beach towns along the coast and meeting the wonderful people that make this stretch of the United States one of our favorite places to go. We hope to end our adventure in Baja, Mexicali around mid-October, 2009.

The Purpose
In our profession of outdoor education and adventure therapy we get to experience a lot of wonderful and wild places. We have seen the impacts of human influence on many of these places and want to do our part to educate and illustrate alternatives to the way we travel. We will also hopefully inspire others to slow down and think about what impact simple decisions can articulate for our future and children’s future. We have a deep desire to help clean up the oceans and shorelines we live and play in. We will help by organizing beach clean ups and educating others.Why Us…We are passionate about saving the places we love. We want to make a difference in whatever way we can and challenge ourselves along the way. We will educate the public on alternative modes of transportation as well as the impact of pollution on the environment. We believe by riding bikes from town to town we will have a chance to meet a variety of different people and have more of an influence on them by practicing what we preach. We are also avid surfers and bicyclists and see this adventure as a fun learning experience for us as well as the people we meet.We will be keeping up our blog as we are traveling on our trip.
