After pursuing her dream of cycling 15,000 miles from California to the tip of South America, Leah learned that adventure is limitless. As a solo woman on her adventure she learned a new language, bicycle maintenance, camping, and survival skills while out in the wild.

Demis from Switzerland and Nancy from Mexico met in Puerto Vallarta in 2010 when their love first sparked. Their relationship didn’t really kick into gear until 2015 when they reconnected. Since then, their lives have focused on enjoying each day together. They rode away from their wedding on bikes and started a journey from Alaska to Patagonia. Along the way they found Babino, their puppy, who’s along for the ride of a lifetime cruising in the Tail Wagon trailer.

With over five years exploring the globe, Jake began his Venture500 campaign to complete 50 expeditions, each 500+ miles, while crossing every continent using non-motorized transportation.
