From September 2016 to July 2017 we travelled across both America. We visited East coast of USA, then flew to Argentina, from where we visited Iguazu waterfalls, Buenos Aires and Patagonia. From Patagonia we passed to Chile. We rode nearby Ocean north to visit Atacama desert…

We followed some roads of Trans America Trail in Oregon and it was awesome.There is even a church of holy cyclists ;) Enormous trees, mountains, rivers, lakes and waterfalls. Everything within one state. As far as I remember the first cute, wild wild west, city was Prairie City…

Mother Nature, what the hell have they done to you? They've made a parking lot out of the park. As cyclists we experienced hell rather than pleasure riding in Yellowstone. Car after car, RV after RV, and it was just second half of May. But what should I expect? If there is a…

We spent a few days in Seattle. The most iconic attraction and icon of the city is the futuristic 184 meter high tower Space Needle. We rested on the lawn under the tower, which was the backdrop for the colorful amphitheater, where in 1991 Pearl Jam played their first album. The…

Z miejscowości Jackson ruszyliśmy w stronę parku Yellowstone na północ. Po drodze mieliśmy okazję zwiedzić Park Narodowy Grand Teton w którym króluje pasmo Teton i jego najwyższa góra Grand Teton (4,199 m), którą miejscowi tłumaczą jako wielki cycek :) Widok na pasmo ośnieżonych…

Every time I think of Zion I say Ohhhh. It wasn't just beautiful, the ride through it was so exciting and thrilling that I ate a lot of bugs with my dropped mouth ;) We got there on Mount Carmel Hwy but we had to hitch a ride through the tunnel. After that there was a long "feel…

After leaving the South Rim of Grand Canyon we rode down to totally different world. Green pine forest was gone and it was getting more and more colorful and warm. Spring woke up all the beauty in this part of Arizona. We were amazed by spectacular plants that grow there. Warm…

Surreal or sculptured abyss... My vocabulary is too poor to describe Grand Canyon. This video and photos will show some of its greatness and beauty. We visited it on Easter in April 2017. We took road 64 from Williams and camped in national forest before we got the park. The next…

Route 66 was one of our favorite rides in California. We started in Barstow and finished in Needles. Sometimes we had to ride on her enemy road 40 because some parts of 66 were in terrible shape but before we got to Amboy we experienced the brand new road. In Amboy we stopped for…

"Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul." - John Muir. I agree with that man. In March We spent two days in Yosemite and we gained faith and power again to carry on our trip. In two days we…

The most beautiful city in United States so far. We were inspired by its architecture and hilly roads :) Sometimes it was so steep that I had to pedal verrry hard and it took my breath away. We didn't look look for tourists attractions, just rode along the bay admiring Golden…

We were a few days before San Francisco, almost ready to reach it. We had to choose between riding across the ocean or pass the mountains to San Jose and visit Silicon Valley, one of the most famous places of modern electronics, places of main offices of Apple, Google, Intel etc…

Being in LA I couldn't miss some places that have belonged to The Doors and Jim Morrison. The concert in Hollywood Bowl was my first experience with this band, so we went there to see the scene. I thought it was much bigger. We could go around it with our bikes :) We visited the…

Bikers! You have to be careful and watch out for Edward Scissorhands. In LA we arrived about 9 am. We were very excited about biking in this famous town. Once we set up our bikes we hit the road. We went to Hollywood hills to see the panoramic view of town. It was awesome!!! Then…

Sequoias are one of the largest and oldest trees in the world. These massive trees can live over 3,000 years (when most trees are 300 years old) thanks to a chemical in the bark called tannin that helps protect them from rot and insects. Fibrous and thick bark protects them from…

This was our first Thanksgiving and it was awesome. We were just about to leave US so we had a good break from packing up our bikes and stuff into these small boxes. Anyway, Vence and Tommie were so supportive that it wasn't that difficult to do it. The atmosphere was very nice…

We visited a beautiful park in Florida where we saw otters playing in the swamp, birds on oaks and cypress trees and armadillos :) No alligators this time. It was a wanderful day to explore how Florida looked like a hundred years ago. Extra 360 video! Album

Take a walk with us along Morningside Drive in Sarasota and explore modern buildings with beautiful front yards until we will get to the beach :)

Is it possible to grow fruit and vegetables in the winter? In Florida everything is possible. It is the sunshine state :) Since we are chasing the summer, we are riding in sunny days all the time and we usually do not realize that actually it is fall and it is going to be winter…

When travelling by bike you never know what is going to happen. Of course, there are not always good things but this time we were very lucky because we met Tom and Becky in Bradenton, Florida, who share their adventure cycling stories from western part of America and now we are…

This craazy weekend started pretty quietly with a nice lying on the beach, swimming in the bay and drinking some nice cocktails but a few moments later we had the time of our lives. We left our bikes in a garage :) and we went to see American football match between two high…

We got to Crystal River and as you know it was a last minute call. I was so happy because I heard that there are manatees and they are very friendly and sociable, sweet creatures. In the morning we took a canoe and paddled along the river to look for them...

We had a very great time during Halloween evening. When we got to Crystal River Juliana invited us to join her and her family to Halloween event. I thought it would be a party with many scary thing but it occurred to be a nice full of playing time for children. They do everything…

I had a little different view of bike travels. I thought that you cycle in the sunshine, birds sing, you find a nice place to camp etc. But it's not. When pedaling everyday, after some miles everything hurts, the sun burns your skin and mind, no birds songs, and there are many…

After leaving Jacksonville we went south to Gainesville. We took an amazing Jacksonville-Baldwin Rail-Trail. We had a pleasant ride until we got flat tire. When we stopped thousands of mosquitoes attacked us but we were prepared this time thanks to Debbie and David :) So we…

Traveling to Savannah supposed to be easy going. The day before we heard a few interesting stories about the city. Houses there were built on old graves, so every place is haunted by ghosts... Our plan was to go to main street of Savannah, River Street and see famous Bonaventure…

In South Carolina we had opportunity to go through the national forest and it was so veeeeery pleasant ride. In Poland you can enter any forest you like because they are all national but in USA we have been seeing NO TRESPASSING all the time. We feel like there is no nature…

We went to St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Edenton to get some blessing :) and listen to fantastic music performed by church organist and the choir in which Mimi sings. It's a beautiful and modest, tiny church. It's the second oldest one in North Carolina from 1736. We enjoyed the…

We have met an amazing woman with skills to fly :) Her name is Mimi and she is one of those who say "don't waste your time, do it" :) She took us very high to experience what is like being a bird and now biking seems boring... Anyway, we were very excited and couldn't believe it…

Virginia Beach has beautiful wide sandy beach but in the center the huge hotels eclipse the sun so we couldn't sunbathe at about 5 pm ;) Anyway, we found a great empty beach on the southern side of   Virginia Beach where there were some spectacular houses built on dunes (lucky b…

Another excellent ride from Williamsburg to Jamestown. I think everybody should see Colonial Williamsburg and compare it to NYC :) What a difference! It's a great live museum to visit and actors are the best. You can experience old times in every way, it is like back to the past…

Last time we had a chance to ride along Virginia Capital Trail and we really enjoyed it. It was fun :) The trail is prepared perfectly for biking and it goes through peaceful, green areas. Wonderful ride for about 55 miles and there are a lot of things to see and visit. It was a…

We had a great ride with Michael last Sunday. We went from Stafford to Fredericksburg and there were some climbing on our way. With all those panniers I was moving as a snail but anyway I managed to reach the top :) Have a nice Sunday :)

We had another attempt to reach that nearby road. There were many branches and we followed streambed so it was extremely slippery sometimes. Afterwards we had to rode through river... Watch this video to find out if we made it :)

Got stuck in the woods, we did not want to turn around because the road was about 100 meters from us. We tried to find it but firstly we couldn't go through branches and second time ...

We were riding from Springfield to Stafford and had some nice woods on our way. We decided to go through the nice wildland and rest from horning loud cars. There was a good road that we followed but it ended and we got stucked nearby old cementary...

After Philly we had enough of big cities but Washington surprised us positively. We met super people again who welcomed us in their house around trees and wild animals :) They took us for a nice drive around Washington at night where everything was illuminated. The design of city…

We had a great time in Marshallton last week thanks to Rob and his family. Inspite of bad weather he took us for a ride along country roads. The landscape is beautiful there with many horses and barns, nice houses we finally find some nature. We rode many miles that day, it was…

Philly welcomed us with "be careful" advice :) but we did not take it seriously and carried on. Ughh there was litter everywhere and every 60m traffic lights. This wcity started killing me slowly. Next day we went to visit some nice places as City Hall and Independence Hall. We…

Is New Jersey a garden state? really?- I was wondering riding through messy roads and ugly industrial buildings. The trip from NYC to New Jersey was not as bike friendly as we thought. We had to go across Manhattan until we got to Harlem to cross the Hudson river. George…

A few words about our staying in New York city. It's a really fascinating City of glass. Everybody will find something interesting in it. Undoubtedly it's worth visiting even if you don't like big cities. It's like a jungle but made of concrete. Many different people live here so…

A long walk along Times Square...

Last year we thought Berlin is a crowdy city. It is nothing in compare to NYC. Every place in Manhattan is crowded. It takes long time to go a few miles, because you have to ride between cars. Look at map and youtube video! Map:

From JFK we had to rode to Brooklyn. It was first chance to get into such jungle traffic with our bikes.

Love this part of travelling. Beginning of everything, getting ready, getting to know your bicycle again!
