Hey folks, as some of you might know, I've been making plans to do a bike tour down the west coast via the 101 highway. My goal is to bike from Astoria, Oregon to Slab City, California and arrive in time for StP's Dirty Scouts Jamboree in October.
I've done a few small bike tours before, but most were over a decade ago and none were anywhere near as intense as what's facing me in the coming weeks.
The idea of biking this kind of distance is pretty daunting, but I'm going to do my best and try to have as much fun with it as I can.
I've decided to do a video blog of my journey and I'll be updating this thread with each new video as I plod along.
That said, here's the first video in this series. It's a little slap dash, but I'm still ironing out all the kinks in my video work flow so future videos should be a lot better.
Of course I'm always open to suggestions or questions, so feel free to post them in this thread.
Of course if you want to subscribe to my channel or post a comment directly on the video, you can do so here:
