Winter solstice

I am half of Earth’s revolution around the Sun away from departure. In six months, when the Sun will shine 24 hours a day north of the Arctic Circle, I’ll leave Inuvik, in Northwest Territories of Canada, with the goal of reaching Ushuaia, in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. Map.

A lot of things happened in the last months, starting by putting online this website.The agreement with Equiterre, the organization that I am supporting the actions during my trip, became official. I now have a bike and the bags to carry all my luggage, thanks to the support of my partners Le Grand Cycle and Arkel. And all that while going to the gym, keeping my muscles and my heart active.

There is still a lot to do in the next 6 months. Training intensification, getting the equipment, logistic organization, looking for subventions and partners, organizing a tour around Quebec for training and testing the equipment…

So, nothing to get bored! But before everything, I want to take the opportunity to wish you Happy Holidays and a good time with family and friends! I’ll keep up to date in 2012 about future development!

  1. Salut Étienne,

    Nous allons faire une conférence sur notre voyage Alaska-Argentine le 8 mars prochain à 19h chez Cyclo Nord-Sud… ça peut t’intéresser si tu as des questions pour ta grande aventure!

    Bravo pour l’initiative!

    Lucie et Torrey
