Topic: Bicycle Tour from Seattle to Boston
Kevin, Ximena, and their friend Joe, toured across the country in 2022. They biked through Northern Cascades National Park, Glacier, Yellowstone, Devils Tower, Mt. Rushmore, the plains of South Dakota, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. They traveled through Michigan, Ontario, Canada, then into Buffalo, New York, and rode 360 miles on the Erie Canal Trail to Massachusetts. The sights, the beauty, and the people of America made this trip unforgettable. They look forward to sharing their adventure with BCI.

A few of their 47 tours include riding the Trans America route, the West Coast from Vancouver, Canada to the U.S.-Mexican border, the GAP & CO trail, a trip over the Rocky Mountains, tours in Oregon, the South West, Canada, and France. They both love the outdoors and have completed backpacking trips in the Grand Tetons, Sierras, and the Grand Canyon. They have also helped in a cattle drive moving 400 head of cattle from their summer grasslands to their winter pastures.
