pedaling through purgatory - in search of booze and glory
who wants to ride 320 km off road in 36 hours? who wants to help us do it?
We’re doing an impossible bike ride.
On the longest day of the year, (June 20, 2025) Zeke, myself and a couple of other imbeciles are going to ride from Zeke’s place in Dartmouth all the way to the Steinhart Distillery outside of Antigonish.
This is a 320k ride with over 90% of it off road.
How long will that take?
Good question.
We’re planning on doing it in thirty six hours.
Straight riding.
Sure, we’ll have some support along the way. People are going to bring us food and water.
For the most part though?
It’ll be a few folks on their bikes pedaling through the pain.
In order to make it, I’m training.
It’s tough to train for this sort of thing because there are not a lot of training programs that account for insanity.
Last night though?
Last night I started with one hour on the bike trainer.
My arse is sore already.
Wanna be part of this?
We want to make a movie / video / film about this one.
Know any film makers who want to record something incredible?
Are any of them good at getting funding?
Want to contribute somehow?
Bake some cookies? Show up with food / water as we pass by?
Show up with cameras to record and interview us then send us the footage?
Got a drone and time to kill?
Hell, want to come along for the ride?
Send me a message and let me know.
The best way to accomplish the impossible is to get help.
And the best way to get help is to ask.
