Hey, I’m in Italy when this drops! Look for the Pedalshift Goes Italian episode next week!
Look for that tour announcement in the next few weeks on the show… Pedalshift Society folks you’ll be getting the advanced audio on a brand new special feed PLUS a bonus ep or two depending on what shakes out. Not a member but crave bonus bike touring podcasts?

Five star reviews!
I am WAY behind.
Helpful and entertaining
I just binge listened to every episode I could get my ear holes on. Very informative and entertaining. I hope to do more bike tours and I am positive my next one will be c&o and gap. Keep doing what you are doing. Great job!!!

What a fun ride!
Love this podcast and it’s a lot of fun to follow Tim on his cycling journey. I’ve been cycling for over 40 years (Oy…) and it’s great to hear the enthusiasm, thoughtfulness, and high energy! Keep up the good work and keep the rubber side down my friend! -Rob from Philly

Island in a storm AKA Inspiration
I found this podcast after listening to the amazing Portland crew (Sprocket Podcast) and found this island full a wealth of information about bicycle touring wrapped in inspiration. I was getting ready for the adventure of a lifetime and needed help with everything if I was to pedal the Upcoming 600 mile Pacific Northwest (I made it by the way). This is the podcast filled with “Why Not” attitude that replaces doubt with knowledge. If you are looking for a guide to manage and prepare for a touring adventure look no further. As I prepare for next adventure of having my Hip (ya last time was my knee … old parts brake lol) replaced you better believe this is a comforting island in this storm I’ll be listening to prepare to ride again. Your in for a treat if you join in and listen.

The Lab – Bike Touring on Busy Roads
-
Practice near home
-
Take a class at an LBS or bike club
-
Time your ride
-
Get a mirror
-
Be visible
-
The pool noodle trick
-
Be predictable – hand signals etc.
-
Don’t be afraid to take the lane (where legal) or get on a sidewalk (where legal)
-
Always remember – you belong on those roads just as much as motorized vehicles, but you’re way more vulnerable so take precautions and stay safe!
