company history
Adventure Cycling Wales was established in 2008 by brothers Ben and Oli. The idea for the business was inspired by our completion of a cycle touring expedition from coast to coast in the USA, with two friends, Jimbo and Brian. We were self supported and raised money for sustainable charities in Africa and the UK (TreeAID).
The journey was roughly 4000 miles from New York to San Francisco, through the centre of the USA, crossing the Rockies at Wolf Creek Pass in Colorado and reaching the Pacific Ocean at Half Moon Bay, north of Los Angeles. Some photos of our journey are below.
