Bicycle Touring Pro featured on BikeRadar.com

A popular cycling website called BikeRadar.com recently interviewed me about my website at BicycleTouringPro.com and my life as a long-distance bicycle traveler. The resulting article was just released and I think it’s a nice little summary of what I’ve been up to over the past couple years. Check it out at BikeRadar.com!

SWAE Sports & Bicycle Touring Pro

By DARREN ALFF on

A little over a month ago a new company called SWAE Sports contacted me about placing a script on my website at BicycleTouringPro.com that would allow my readers to search for and book bicycle tours from hundreds of companies all over the world. It sounded like a great idea, so I placed the code on my site and have been using this new service ever since.

One Year As An Adventure Cycling Guest Blogger

By DARREN ALFF on

It’s been nearly one year now since I started writing as a guest blogger for America’s largest bicycle touring organization, the Adventure Cycling Association.

I really like writing articles for the ACA because the ACA are the ones that initially taught me so much about bicycle travel. And now, by sharing what I’ve learned over the past ten years of traveling by bike myself, I get to help others both learn about and experience the wonders of bicycle touring.

While I have been blogging on my own website at BicycleTouringPro.com for nearly three years now, the Adventure Cycling Association just celebrated their first year in the blogosphere. To mark the occasion, the ACA posted an article listing their top 10 blog posts of the last year – and one of the articles I wrote for them (an article about how to pack your bicycle panniers) landed at number 8 on the list.

I have one more article to write for the Adventure Cycling Association this year, but I really hope they ask me back to write for them again. I love writing for the organization and I’ve got a whole lot more to share.

A short interview with yours truly has been posted on the carfreeAmerican web blog.
