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

...
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.

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.

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...
