Listen to Terri Jockerst take us on her cycle touring adventures from Norway to Malta and then through Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Terri is living proof age need not get in the way of an adventure. She is 67 years old and loves spending her retirement taking solo cycle tours. Her tours last several months at a time, she wildcamps where possible and strongly believes that bike touring is the best way to discover a country, it’s history and it’s culture. In the episode we explore:
• Cycling Norway to Malta – 3 journeys taken over 3 years
• Highlights from cycling through remote and wild landscapes
• Overcoming perceived age barriers – Terri is proof age shouldn’t get in the way of a good adventure.
• Cycling through Taiwan, Japan and South Korea
• The incredible kindness of strangers along the way
• Advice for anyone dreaming of their own bikepacking adventure
