What gets the equivalent
of 1,000 miles per
gallon, doesn't pollute,
will save the world,
and transports you in
breezy style? Your bike.

Western Express
WESTERN EXPRESS CROSS COUNTRY
My spouse and I are doing a self-supported cross country ride on a tandem recumbent pulling a bob type trailer. Mostly camping some motels. Statistics are currently estimates only. (Don Swett, May, 2009)


JUNKMILES
I had a few weeks, a few hundred dollars, my health, a bike, and most importantly,a death wish, so I figured I didn't have anything to lose. (Bejan Abtahi, Aug, 2008)


THREE WHEELS TO THE WIND
East to West on the TransAm and Western Express on three wheels. (Jeff Cunningham, Jul, 2007)


ESPERANZA RIDING
Neither of us have any experience with multi-day bike trips, but by trips end (most people dont think well get that far) well have pedaled nearly 4,000 miles, crossed the USAs three mountain ranges, spent some 55-60 days in the saddle... (Dave Stuart Jr., Jun, 2007)


WESTERN EXPRESS
Created our own route from San Jose to the Sierra range where we joined AC's Western Express ride. We cut off in Salida to ride to Denver. (Rick Madden, May, 2006)


BIKE FOR EDUCATION
We are a group of seven high school students who are taking advantage of our summer by exploring and traveling through this great country we live in. In the summer of 2005, we're getting on our bikes, and riding 3.200 miles from San Francisco, to Norfolk, VA. Along the way we will be raising money and awareness for education and health. (Chris Brian Greg Beau Jos Road Scholars, Jun, 2005)


DESERT MADNESS
Having cycled thousands of miles over the North American continent for more than 30 years, this little jaunt proved to be one of the most challenging tours I have ever undertaken. Not for the faint-hearted,but the daily rewards served to underscore the amount of endurance and determination necessary to survive in "the middle of Nowhere". (pat giorni, May, 2001)


NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
This tour was an ill-fated attempt to cross the Southwestern desert at the most inhospitable time of year. But from failure important lessons are gleaned. Although the Western Express route was only months from publication, this trip was a precurssor to the WE taken the following Spring,2001. (pat giorni, Aug, 2000)


MEADMAN ACROSS AMERICA BICYCLE ADVENTURE
We are riding our bikes across America to encourage people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to be active in the outdoors. Our goal is to raise money to provide scholarships for financially disadvantaged people to go on Wilderness Inquiry trips. WI is a nonprofit organization that focuses on getting people from all walks of life into the wilderness - including those with disabilities. (Jenni Mead, Sep, 2004)
