Tagged:  •    •    •  

This website, hobobiker.com, documents Nancy Lewis (53) and Randy Fay (53) two and half year bicycle trip. They sold nearly everything they owned -- including their house, car and furniture -- so they could pedal -- and sometimes push -- their bikes 13,000 miles (22,000 kilometers) through 14 countries from northern Canada to southern Chile, carrying everything they would need to be self-supporting.

The once-in-a-lifetime experience started in Inuvik, Canada in June 2006 and has ended in Puerto Montt, Chile in January 2009.The purpose of this trip, and the mode of transportation, was to get to know the people and their cultures in a more intimate way.

They returned to the United States by plane this time, flying into Miami, Florida, on January 14, where they reassembled their bikes and then cycle to Naples, Florida, where they spent several months resting.

In April 2009, Randy and Nancy returned back to Colorado and transitioned back into normal life. Their stories and photos of this incredible journey can be viewed here at www.hobobiker.com.
