Speaking

Alan Carpenter has logged 17,300 miles of long-distance hiking and cycling adventures. They include the John Muir Trail (twice), the Colorado Trail (twice), Pacific Crest Trail, the Appalachian Trail, and over half of the Continental Divide Trail. He cycled the Pacific Coast Route from Canada to the US-Mexico border and repeated the portion from Crescent City, California to Santa Barbara. He rode the Southern Tier Route from San Diego, California to St. Augustine, Florida. Then, he and his wife, Betsy, cycled the Northern Tier Route from Anacortes, Washington, to Bar Harbor, Maine. During the spring and summer of 2021, Alan and Betsy plan to cycle the Pacific Coast Route southbound from northern Washington to the US-Mexico border then head back north to Canada on the Sierra Cascades Route.
