In this episode of Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I have the chance to sit back and talk with Justinas Leveika. A Lithuanian cyclist living in Norway, Justinas shares about his experience participating in and setting a new fastest known time (FKT) for the Bikepacking Triple Crown. Justinas talks about his background as a nurse who moved to Norway for work and details his journey into cycling, beginning with his childhood in Lithuania.

Justinas discusses the unique challenges and experiences of the three major races that make up the Triple Crown: the Tour Divide, the Colorado Trail Race, and the Arizona Trail Race. He highlights the technical difficulties, varying climates, and the physical and mental endurance required for each race. Justinas also recounts his strategies, including the importance of comfort for speed, his use of full suspension bikes, and the significance of proper gear and training. Throughout the conversation, he touches on the camaraderie within the bikepacking community, the challenges of self-supported races, and his hopes for the future. Despite some setbacks and controversies, Justinas's story is one of resilience and passion for the sport.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, Dominick Menard stopped over on the way to a gravel race in the region. We spent a couple hours talking about his journey towards Bikepacking. Having grown up as a competitive mountain biker and working his way up to riding on the pro circuit, Dominick has a ton of biking experience. Not too long after diving headfirst into the nomadic lifestyle of van-life, Dominick got the crazy idea to start a YouTube series called Bon Velo, geared at sharing the amazing MTBing of Quebec with everyone online. After two seasons of doing this his call to adventure was getting louder and, on a whim, he decided he would cycle to Patagonia. Throughout our conversation, we went deep into his journey south, talking extensively on gear, bikes, mindset, and much, much more.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventure Podcast, Carl Presseault dropped by to talk bikes with me. We talked about our successes and failures with regards to bikepacking throughout the summer, the joy of commuting by e-bikes and the challenges associated with that. Carl spoke on the growing subculture of basket-packing and what are the advantages of using a basket for adventuring. We talked about various bike bags we are using, and so much more I can't remember off the top of my head. The cover photo is a throwback to our first bikepacking adventure in the spring of 2021.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I had the opportunity to chat with Oscar Donovan before he takes on a cargo-bike adventure around Pakistan. Having already bikepacked in over 30 countries, Oscar is pretty experienced when it comes to bicycle adventures in other countries. As with so many others, Oscar's initial goal of cycling around the world was thwarted by COVID. In the time since, Oscar has cycled large parts of Africa and is now planning on cycling around the world with his cargo bike, aiming to be the first person to complete do so. Lastly, I thought it was very cool that he sometimes creates his own music for his videos, which I am sure is no small feat. We had a great chat about all things bikes.

In episode 200 of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I decided to do something a little bit different so as to celebrate this milestone episode. I reached out to all the past guests on the podcast to ask them for updates on what adventures they have been on in the time since they came on the podcast, as well as any major new adventures they have planned for the future. I'm so stoked to see so many past guests respond with voice memos letting me know how things have been going since they were on the podcast. I wish I had the time to record follow-up podcasts with each and every one of them as I'm sure they have amazing stories to share, but alas, this isn't possible. Ultimately, I really enjoyed hearing from them and hope that you also enjoy this episode, particularly as it took an unbelievable amount of time to put together.

Thank you to all the listeners that have helped support the podcast over the years. It certainly wouldn't have been possible to keep this project going for so long without the constant support that has come my way. Here's to 200 more episodes, more awesome interviews, more new friends, and of course, more adventures.
