Cycling around the World Since 2008: an interview with Julian Bloomer and Ellie Beck

Julian Bloomer had been dreaming of a long distance bicycle tour since he was a boy. In July 2008, he decided to forgo becoming a home owner and instead sink his savings into realizing his bicycle dreams. Julian’s original plan was a bicycle adventure through West Africa. Almost 4 years, 5 continents and more than 50,000 kilometers later, he’s still on the road. We met up with Julian in Thailand where he’s currently cycling with partner Ellie Beck.
