Teacher on Two Wheels

So far, three companies have jumped on board and sponsored the trip in some way:

Perseus Books Group–This publishing conglomerate publishes a book called Delaying the Real World, a manual for 20-somethings who are looking to avoid the mundane rat race that is the ‘real world’. Each year, Perseus awards a fellowship to one young person who is doing something unconventional, something other than the 9-5 grind. Perseus has given me $3,500 towards my trip. Thank you!

Schwalbe Tires–Schwalbe has generously given me a large discount on tires for my trip. I’m using 26″ Schwalbe Marathon XRs–the single most recommended tire for loaded cycle touring. Thank you!!

REI–The Marlton, New Jersey REI store has agreed to supply me with spare parts and gear throughout the ride. The bike mechanics at the store helped me get the bike put together and I purchased a lot of my gear through REI before I left. Thank you Herb for helping get the sponsorship details sorted out! Thanks REI!
