“We are two high school friends (Rob on the left, Adie on the right) on a gap year. In the summer of 2011, we set off on our first bike tour: a two-month tour of France and Spain on bamboo fixed-gear bikes that we built ourselves. We have spent about a month training for our trip and making a lot of our own gear, such as our panniers and stove. This is our first bike tour.”
