Bicycle Touring along the Mississippi: Art Zemon

In this episode I interview Art Zemon who recently completed a 1200km bicycle tour along the Mississippi River from St Peters Missouri to Minneapolis, Minnesota.  Art is a relative newcomer to cycling, having rediscovered his love of riding bikes in his retirement.  He started out on an e-bike and has since progressed steadily to a fully fledged bicycle touring set-up, enjoying the freedom two wheels has given him.  During the interview we discussed what it was like to pick up cycling again later in life, and how he steadily progressed from requiring the assistance of an e-bike to realising the extra weight of the motor was actually holding him back. Art also discusses how he enjoys mixing his new passion for bicycle touring and camping, along with his love of photography and being in the outdoors.You can read more about Art's bicycle tour along the Mississippi River via his personal blog - Cheerful Curmudgeon Check out the Elkhorn Rack from Old Man Mountain Support the showBuy me a coffee!I’m an affiliate for a few brands I genuinely use and recommend including:👉  CycPlus– ePumps (enter code STR for 5% off!)👉 Zorali 👉 Helinox 👉 Ombraz Follow us on Social Media!Instagram - @SeekTravelRideFacebook - Seek Travel RideYouTube - @SeekTravelRideSeek Travel Ride NewsletterLeave me a voicemail message Seek Travel Ride Music Playlist available now on both Spotify or Apple Music
