I am pleased to finally announce my newest adventure: Whimsical Cycle Tours! For many years, I have been trying to come up with a way to combine my love of bicycle travel with an actual career that would allow me to share that joy with others. My tours will focus on the Sacramento area and we will be offering overnight camping trips that cater toward families and casual riders who want to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. Right now, we are still in the very beginning stages but we should be starting to offer beta tours over the next couple of months. I could not have gotten even this far if it hadn't been for the help of some very special people, especially Sami for her encouragement and drive to turn this into a reality, my parents for being my very first investors, and Jen who created my amazing logo and website banners.
Another happy announcement is that our Whine & Chocolate tour is BACK ON!!! It took some soul searching and some number-crunching but I've come to the conclusion that there's no better time than right now to start living our lives exactly as we choose. I want to be able to offer my boys a simple life filled with adventure and experiences. I want to be able to lead by example that one can travel and explore without the need of a minivan and highways. We want to relish in the slow-paced sights of nature and be able to immerse ourselves in purposeful wanderings.
Many of the exact details of our summer trip hinge on the availability of our Bike Friday Haul-a-Day. Its production has been delayed until mid-June and I'd need some time to test it out and break it in before I'd feel comfortable taking it on a long-distance trip. I'm staying hopeful and flexible with ideas for a "long" option and an "abbreviated" itinerary. I am also hoping that once we can nail down some relatively firm plans, we'll be able to open the trip up to others to join and/or meet us along the way.
There is so much that I am excited about and while I'm a bit nervous to be jumping into a brand new venture, I cannot wait to open Sacramento up to the world of Bicycle Tourism!
