My name is Iohan, I am 32 and was born and raised in Bulgaria. When I was 15 I moved to Ontario, Canada where I spent the next 10 years. In 2003 I got a touring bike and went to Vancouver for the first time, I have never seen the Coastal Range or The Rockies before and in 40 days I rode across Canada. I always liked riding my bike but now I knew that I can ride it anywhere. In the spring of 2014 I began riding from the frozen arctic ocean.

As of October 2020 I have cycled for 6 years from the Arctic Ocean in Canada to Patagonia in Chile with about 2500km in a straight line remaining to Ushuaia. I am always looking forward to meeting amazing new people, visiting wild and beautiful locations and finding new challenges and making friends with dogs. It's a big world and I want to see it. I am also trying to capture a part of the adventure via video series, available free online! 

Third day on my first trip I met a cyclist and he said: "Don't forget to enjoy the ride" It took a while to sink in but attitude matters. You can be cold, miserable and complaining or just have the time of your life in the worst of storms!!!

None of what I've been through would have happened if I waited to get all the right gear, all the planning and of course - felt comfortable doing it and things always seemed to work out in the end.


If you have any questions, suggestions or comments, feel free to get in touch


if you would like to buy me a beer/lunch or a new tube (note, I havent had a flat since I went tubeless in 2016!!!) you can do so over here!! :)

on a side note - mostly through youtube followers (i think!?), I am building a big following via Patreon. It is reliable and it allows me to continue riding, writing and making videos from any place in the world (as if 2019, chile/argentina). consider making even a small monthly contribution via patreon here.
