A major turning point in my #prohobo adventures.... After 2900miles heading predominantly West I've finally turned south! No more prevailing headwinds or #transcanada highway. Next stop billys wedding in #kelowna, then #usa, then #Mexico then #southamerica! #bikepacking #travelblogger #travel #canada

#calgary finally! That's was a long ride over from Newyork, 2600miles of which at least 2000 were headwind! Looking forward to @cos23 joining me for the next 6 weeks at a slightly more relaxed pace. #prohobo #bikepacking #canada #transcanada @mason_cycles

If he was actually a #prohobo he'd be hitching a ride @joshibbett ・・・ #prohobo diary 23: #trainspotting. How do i entertain myself riding long straight roads? One way is to count the carriages on the trains crossing the country... 172 was the record! @mason_cycles @apidura @rapha @huntbikewheels #bikepacking #travelbybike #iwanttoseetheworld #travel #trains

#prohobo diary 11: Getting gravely, #madrid to #Zaragoza pt 1. I left Madrid and picked a route on small roads through a national park. Turns out the roads were mainly gravel and there were very few towns to resupply at.

#prohobo diary 10: Castles, plaines and gravel... riding to #madrid. The 135miles from #salamanca to madrid was some of my favourite riding so far. Rolling open countryside, sneaky gravel tracks and some incredible #landscapes.

Another exciting episode of #prohobo master chef! I've listened to the feedback from the internet and have now added vegetables into the mix. All you need to prepare this simple recipe is 1 x cup of rice, 1x can of tuna, 1 x can of sweet corn and 1 x abandoned warehouse. Enjoy! #masterchef #cooking #campdinner #tuna #sweetcorn #bikepacking @mason_cycles

First night #camping in #Spain. Had the whole Valley to myself... The new main road left my road unused and peaceful. 50miles to #pamplona for a day off. Pretty smashed after crossing the mountains and then a headwind day. #prohobo #bikepacking #wildcamping @mason_cycles @huntbikewheels @apidura

#pamplona. Finally made it. It was a slog over the mountains and the lovely downhill over the otherside was a head wind grovel. Time to eat everything in sight! #prohobo #bikepacking #roundtheworld #Spain @mason_cycles @huntbikewheels @apidura
