Hi,
I am a 41 year old male who is interested in riding the great divide route over about 5 weeks starting early August 2017, from north to south.  This will be a self supported ride and I'm planning to camp majority of the time.  I'll be riding a non-suspended mountain bicycle with a rear rack / panniers.  The exact trip dates are flexible.  Post a reply if you are interested and we'll get in touch -
Cheers, Jeremy

Jeremy - I did the GDMBR from Banff to Squirrel Ranch in 2016, stopped by wildfires at Yellowstone. I intend to finish from Squirrel Ranch (Idaho) to Mexico (1693 miles to go) in late July/August 2017. I averaged 60 miles/day. You are welcome to join me. ROB ROBERTSON

I will have to see how my schedule is but I would love to try coming along to do the Canadian portion of this tour if you'd have me along.

Hi Jeremy,
John Bolton is my name and I am traveling from Ireland this year to cycle the great divide. My aim is to cycle in approximately 5 weeks also and my setup sounds familiar to your own. My intention was to start in June but I can be flexible with this. Let me know if you would be interested in discussing this further.

Thanks

John Bolton

Hi John,
I'm planning on starting 2nd Friday in June if you didn't decide to start in August. Just got back from riding Tour Aotearoa in NZ so have most things ready to go.

Cheers,
Wayne
