A Worldwide Bicycling Adventure

by Steve Coulson
(World Traveller)

Karen and Steve Coulson quit their secure jobs, sold their home and all of their belongings. On August 28th, 2009 they set off to travel the World by bicycle. They are attempting to survive on a low budget and stop in what ever type of accommodation that they can afford to keep their costs down. Where possible they camp. Now and again they take time out and stay in one place for a while, renting low cost apartment or house / pet sitting. Anything to stretch their meagre finances and keep them riding.

They have travelled through the UK, Northern Spain and Portugal. Currently they are house sitting in Lubrin, Spain before undertaking a tour of central Spain in April and May.

You can see their full story at their web site www.my-bicycling-adventure.com which discusses why they are doing it, how they manage their money and affairs, their equipment selections and accounts of some of their tours. You can also sign up for their blog and follow their adventures.
