Occasionally our bicycle adventure is covered by the media.
This is amazing for two reasons. First, bike touring is not a
mainstream activity and non-racing cyclists seldom receive news coverage.
Second, we live abroad, on the road, and without basic conveniences like
a telephone or even dependable electricity. The interviews and stories
below will hopefully provide an interesting insight into our nomadic lives and
the world of bicycle touring.

Part 1: This two
part video is made from a radio interview between an Australian
radio station and Cindie Travis who was passing through while
traveling around the world on a bicycle. Photos and video were
added to go along with the conversation. Cindie is asked, "Where
did you begin your bike trip? She describes (with a map) the last
five years of our around the world bicycle tour. Then she is asked,
"How all this continuous travel has changed you? Do you ride all
the time or take breaks and about bad weather? Cindie's "I can"
description has always made this video a favorite.
Part 2: In part
two of this radio interview Cindie Travis is asked to explain
DownTheRoad.org's future cycling and travel plan. Cindie is also
asked: Do you still enjoy riding your touring bicycle? How many
kilometers or miles have you ridden in the past five years? Do you
meet many others traveling by bike? Have you had any accidents or
bicycle crashes? How many flat tires, punctures, inner tubes, and
tires have you gone through? |
