Thanks, though I may be out of the area by then.  I'd be interested in talking / photographing anyone else active in the interim.

I've become fascinated by the concept of Bikepacking, and am wanting to develop a story on the movement for publication at the national magazine level.  I'm interested in networking with Bikepackers in the central Arizona area in spring 2012 for photography and research on the topic.  I'm am a professional photojournalist with over 20 years experience.

Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in collaborating, or to voice any support or objections here.  Thanks!
