That’s a wrap! This incredible group of adventurers managed to wander their way from Catania to Palermo. They overcame fires, blood, and the overwhelming hospitality of the Sicilians.
Adventure travel at it's finest! The only travel company that doesn’t know where you’re going. Travel Differently. We're lost.
Home of the Driftless 250 and other stomach turning, mind boggling adventure trips of a lifetime.

2 Lost 2 Sicily.
Just two more scooters left for Sept 2023. Get your butt this vespalicious trip. 🤘
Lost Travel turns 5 years old in 2023. It’s time we come clean...
Larissa and I have never completed the Drifty. That’s right… we organized it 8 times over 4 years… we paddled the waters and biked a few of the hills…. but we’ve never circumnavigated the Driftless.
Hundreds of brave folks from across North America have completed the Drifty. Not once during a kickoff party or finish line soiree has one of you said “Wait… have you actually done this?” 🙂
This is the year we atone for our sins. Come join us and help make Drifty 9 the biggest of all. We’re aiming for 50 friends of old and new to join us (we’re already halfway there).
This crew is about to be bombing down an unknown mountain somewhere in Montana in a week alongside like a hundred other awesome ridikulous folks. 🤘
We needed a new hat 🧢. Also Nick and Jake are dads now.
Get couture and be fashion, visit lost.travel to pre order yours. 🤘
You know it was a good trip when you make the Italian news 📰
Some of you may be waking up for work on this lovely Monday morning. These compagno’s have been exploring Sicily all night (day?). Lost in Sicily has kicked off, follow along on the adventure at the link the bio. Arrivederci! (That’s goodbye in Italian)
New hat designs coming soon. In the meantime, behold this fine example of a weathered Lost Crew hat.
Lost Sox: “Really comfy 10/10”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Boundary Waters: “Real chill 11/11”
Letssssgooo. Today only sign up for the next Drifty and get 20% off for your whole crew. Lost.travel/drifty
A collection of our favorite quotes from the 8th edition Drifty group chat. The 8th edition wraps up today at 3pm in Madison. If you’re in the area stop by. Announcement later today about the 9th edition!
Yes.
The driftless-est Drifty route to-date. 3 states, all the hills. And it’s only Thursday.
See Jane Bike under the moniker “Best Team Last”at lost.travel/tracking.
Goooooooooood moooorning on the Driftyyyyyy. Day 5. 🚲 🤘
Like every wrestling match we did a bike weigh-in before the trip got started.
Avg fully loaded Bike weight was 69.4lbs. Total spread in carried gear was 139.8lbs with our lightest being Sally (55.1 lbs) and the heaviest being Peter (194.9 lbs).
Today they start wrestling these rigs up the hills of the driftless.
Follow the struggle from your couch at lost.travel/tracking.
Picture perfect start to a Wednesday morning.
Notably absent: laptops, traffic, grumpy bosses, and street signs.
Gooooood morning from Team Best Last. The teams have some miles to make up today on the river and it looks like they’re off to an early start.

Scenes from the Drifty kickoff camp Saturday night. The teams came together from around North America: Alaska, Georgia, Canada, Montana, Illinois, and Wisconsin to get their Drifty on.
It all started with awards, a tiki bar, bad instructions, and a meteor shower to finish up the night.
Driftyyyyyy is Live! Follow along at lost.travel/tracking.

A public service announcement from Lost Travel. Only five days left to register for the 7th Edition of the Drifty 250! Grab a friend and get yourselves Lost!
It was a long time coming and today we put rubber to asphalt on Ashtonash! 🚀 17 brave pioneers pedaled into Appalachia; biking between 3,200 and 3,800 feet of incline. ⛰ At least 2 people fell off their bikes. 💁♀️ 5 people made it to a secret, surprise Tiki bar. 🍹 “Sandy mush” got thrown around a lot. 🗺 Team “Doing Dollywood” got a free home cooked meal from a sweet 79 year old lady named Freda. 🌭 17 people ran out of water. Team KFG drank from a stream. 💧 Mr Kitty Litter Pedersen (a) won the rad bike award and (b) is down to 6 of the 7 stitches in his shin. 🌵 More than one flat tire. 🚲 Tacos were housed. 🌮 2 people missed the start line ceremony 🙊🙊 … More adventure tomorrow 🤘
Mr. @andrew.c.thompson clearing the Military Ridge Trail last week during the sixth edition of the Driftless 250. The trail is all clear now if you want to give our seventh edition a crack in August. #bikepacking #drifty250 #losttravel #wisconsin #militaryridgetrail #driftless250
Incredible week with these hearty adventurers. - Flat tires 3+ (we stopped countin) - High temp of 82F - Low temp of 32F - Youngest participant: 1 year old - More ice cream sandwiches eaten of any Drifty - Bathed in every hot tub in southern Wisconsin. ... We could go on and on... but we’d rather you just come check it out first hand. Get Lost this Summer. Jul 31-Aug 06.
The Drifty. It’s full of moments like this. A counter balance to the physical challenge and messy weather that gets thrown at you. When you find yourself in a hot tub at a themed motel in rural Wisconsin, you’ll know what we mean. Always unpredictable. The Driftless 250. #getlost #adventure #driftlesswisconsin
We partnered with the legends @WalzCaps to make a one-of-a-kind cycling cap for our pioneer edition of the Ash to Nash bikepacking adventure. Registration closes on May 22nd. We've only got 'cap'-acity for six more spots. @WalzCaps #bikepacking
An adventurous friend once told us, "There are too few surprises in life these days." So, we're going to dump a surprise or two on the 6th edition Drifty. What better way to do that than through some custom tarot cards? Drifty Participants: Your fortunes will be told in just 6 days. Also, at the kickoff party we're going to be holding a campfire chat with Drifty veterans and current leaderboard leaders, Wet Exit and Señor Poppycock (buff.ly/3fnzbTh). The Drifty is coming...
Just a week left to grab one of the six spots left on our pioneer edition of the Ash to Nash. You get a start line and a finish line with seven days of bikepacking through the Appalachian mountains in the middle. Our kind of adventure sandwich.
Country singer John Denver famously referred to the Blue Ridge Mountains of as “almost heaven”. 👼 We doubt he was pedaling a bicycle up them when he wrote that. 20 pioneers are about to find out. Don’t get burnt by missing out on our newest pioneer event Ash to Nash, a seven day bike-camping adventure in Appalachia. We’re giving everyone a cargo van to carry their tuxedo, a kickoff and finish party, a one-of-a-kind cycling cap, a treasure map, and shiny commemorative medal. And heck, the winner gets this toaster. Register at lost.travel. 2 weeks left. #bikepacking #adventure #getlost #camping #notcamping #lost #optoutside #appalachia #letsdothis
Congrats to all the teams that successfully pioneered Lost in the Ouachitas! Mr Sam summed it up nicely with “7 days of misery in only 2 days.” It was wet. There were dead fish. One team managed to achieve 40 miles on a 30 mile course. A Field Report is in the works... #losttravel #optoutside #adventure #packrafting #hiking #camping #travel #welost #getlost
