Logan started Mountain biking in the mid-2000's and quickly fell head over heels (sometimes literally) for the sport. Soon after he was lured into the world of bike touring and bikepacking...
A graphic designer by trade, Logan made a major change in 2012, ditched his career and set out on his first, 6-month, long-distance bike tour. During this trip he created Pedaling Nowhere, a blog to document he and his wife Virginia's travels. In 2013 he developed the bikepacking routes project and evolved the website to what would become BIKEPACKING.com in 2015. Follow Logan on Instagram @logans.ride.
