The Metal Cowboy & Family Trans-Canadian Family Adventure
For those of you who haven’t heard yet, the Metal Cowboy, his wife Beth and sons Quinn, 9, Enzo, 7 and Mateo (who just turned one last week) are off on an epic Family Cycling Adventure. It’s all part of an upcoming Bicycle Magazine feature Article.
Side Note: Joe Kurmaskie AKA The Metal Cowboy is Gary’s business partner in Rolling Roads, the founder of Camp Creative and a best selling author of adventure cycling books. Gary is also Joe’s webmaster and will be updating metalcowboy.com while they are on the road.
They will be riding across Canada from West to East starting in British Columbia and eventually finding their way to Nova Scotia sometime in September. They originally started out of a 3 seat tandem bicycle pulling a trial-a-bike with a trailer attached behind that! However they soon decided that they needed to downsize the 3 seat tandem for safety reasons.
Have a look at the monstrosity they will be pedaling Across Canada!
