Now that the ride is over, I'm working on a map of all of the hiker/biker campsites in the US. You can check that out by clicking the button below. If you want to hear more about the ride, you can also check out these two podcast episodes.

This crosscountry cycling trip is a moment of mourning for the gifts of the National Parks we’ve lost or are soon to lose, a celebration of what’s still left for us to cherish, and an acknowledgement of the activists who work to make cycling a safer, more utilized means of transportation in our communities.

The Journey That Made History

OneLongTrip.Bike documents an extraordinary cycling adventure across the United States, connecting every National Park in the Lower 48 through one continuous journey. Covering thousands of miles over more than a year, this project demonstrates what determination, careful planning, and a passion for the outdoors can accomplish.

Every mile tells a story. From mountain passes and desert landscapes to forests, coastlines, and historic landmarks, the route showcases the incredible diversity of America's protected public lands. Along the way, unexpected challenges, changing weather, mechanical repairs, and unforgettable encounters became part of an adventure unlike any other.

Whether you're a cyclist planning your own expedition, a National Park enthusiast, or someone searching for inspiration to pursue an ambitious goal, this project offers practical resources, route information, gear recommendations, and personal insights gathered from more than 18,000 miles on the road.
