His passion for spontaneous, human-powered adventure is palpable in every word and photo. It&#8217;s a hero&#8217;s journey through &#8220;the most amazing places on the planet&#8221; and we&#8217;re all invited along for the ride!<\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Hienz St\u00fccke\" href=\"http:\/\/www.heinzstucke.com\/ \" target=\"_blank\">Heinz St\u00fccke<\/a><\/strong> has spent his entire adult life cycling around the world (half a century and counting). I first became aware of his exploits when I found a crumpled, photocopied version of one of his little booklets on my first big tour, long before the internet and touring blogs. His bicycle touring achievements may never be surpassed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/travellingtwo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The Travelling Two<\/strong><\/a> is full of information and inspiration. Created by Friedel an Andrew, &#8220;two Canadians who love travelling by bicycle,&#8221; the Travelling Two is a great starting point for anyone feeling the call of road!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Big Sur\" href=\"http:\/\/www.big-sur.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Big Sur<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is the site of Sarah and James, a couple of adventure cyclists from the UK touring the Latin America the &#8220;right&#8221; way \u2013 that is, taking it slow, one pedal stroke at a time, and really getting to know this continent. Beautiful photos, well-written, and inspiring without being show-offy. Plus, it&#8217;s a great name for a Latin America bike touring blog!<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Knowledge . . .<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a title=\"The Ethnologue\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ethnologue.com\/show_map.asp?name=Americas&amp;seq=10\" target=\"_blank\">The Ethnologue<\/a><\/strong> is a fascinating site for anyone interested in world languages. For those who think it&#8217;s &#8220;all just Spanish down there,&#8221; I invite you to peruse the multitude of living languages in Latin America.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"If It Were My Home\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ifitweremyhome.com\/index\/CA\" target=\"_blank\">If It Were My Home<\/a><\/strong> is a very addictive site. It tells you how much better or worse of you&#8217;d be if you lived in another country. Or you can just compare any two countries. It&#8217;s amazing to see how divided and unequal this planet is.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsinslowspanish.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>News In Slow Spanish<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is a excellent tool for travellers trying to improve their Spanish before that next big trip. As the name suggests, it&#8217;s a news program spoken in a slow, carefully-pronounced Spanish so that learners can train their ear. The program hosts speak in slow &#8220;Spain&#8221; Spanish, but it&#8217;s still good prep for travel anywhere in the Spanish-speaking world.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Latin American Travel Association\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lata.org\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">The Latin American Travel Association<\/a><\/strong> is a good place to start looking for that next destination.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are some links that may be of interest: &nbsp; Adventure Cyclists . . .
