Bikepack Adventures Podcast

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I'm sharing the conversation I had with Aaron Prasad a little while ago. Unfortunately, it took a bit of time to get it put out as things got crazy for a short while. Now that things are a bit more normal, I happy to release this conversation and share Aaron's journey as a plant-based athlete, lover of Colombia and all things bikepacking. What initially began as a small cycling adventure has grown into a desire to learn more about the country, continued exploration and the desire to challenge not only the mind, but also the body. In January of 2024, Aaron decided that he would embark on an adventure dubbed the 25x25 project. 2500km with 25,000m of elevation gain riding a huge loop through Colombia. As things got going it slowly morphed into what is now closer to 40x40. Tune in to hear Aaron's story.
