    In Brief

    A list of interesting nuggets worth sharing.

    Odds and ends from around the internet that have caught my eye.

    • An interesting photographic journey similar to my M25 walk.
    • Dean Dunbar (blind and stupid*) is planning to swim to France. Impressive!
    • Find – a beautiful mountain bike film
    • The Wilderness Beneath your Feet
    • Often “good enough” is good enough. Maximum efficiency, minimum effort
    • Video intro to an interesting year-long bike journey, Cycling Silk
    • Ski lifts, Afghanistan style
    • Are you tapping companies up for gear sponsorship? Then read this
    • 66 ultramarathons, 66 cities, 66 days. Wow
    • Quirky, interesting bike ephemera. Four round the world cyclists speak

    *-his words, not mine!

    If you are organising an event or an expedition you would like sharing in the In Brief section please send me a one-line summary and link, ideally two months in advance.

    • Canoeing the Yukon

      A 16-foot canoe loaded with food, 500 miles of wilderness ahead of us, camping on islands under the stars: paddling down the Yukon River remains one of my favourite adventures.
