The Ultimate Bikepacking Adventure
RIDING THE GREAT DIVIDE
In summer 2025, I made it 2,000 miles along the Great Divide before crashing out in Del Norte, Colorado — five broken ribs ending an incredible journey.
This is unfinished business.
In August 2026, I'm heading back to finish what I started.
The Journey
The Preparation
Starting at 127kg, I spent a year transforming my body and mind. Working with a coach, logging every meal, and building up from finishing last in an 82km gravel race to being truly ready for the challenge.
2,000 Miles of Magic
Amazing scenery, amazing people, amazing experiences. From the snow-capped peaks of Banff through Montana's Big Sky country, across the basins of Wyoming and into the mountains of Colorado.
Del Norte
A crash. Five broken ribs. The journey ended — but not the dream.
Unfinished Business
Picking up where I left off. Finishing the climbs of Colorado, then through the desert and wilds of New Mexico to Antelope Wells on the Mexican border.
