Introducing Adventure Buddies, The Zine
Nearly three years in the making, 250 un-released images, 500 miles on a bike across the Montana Wilderness. That is my new zine, “Adventure Buddies: #01 Road To Friendship”, in a nutshell.
It is going to be a very limited run and the first 300 copies are going to be very special. If you don’t want to miss the release please sign up here.
Since our falling out in early 2018, my friend Isaac Johnston and I were looking for an ‘epic’ shared adventure to take our friendship to new depths — the kind of expedition that would put us through the lowest lows and the highest highs. From my experience, it is in these situations that we grow the most.
We had grand dreams of South American travel but the reality was that in the summer of 2020, we couldn’t travel anywhere… So I dusted off my idea log and found this idea to cycle across Montana, North to South, using the most remote trails that existed. Isaac was so enthralled with the idea that he built a rough itinerary over a weekend. Our grand adventure became real, very quickly.
The plan was to load our bikes to be completely self sufficient for the longest amount of time, stop when we were hungry or tired, set up camp by a water source, and bring the least amount of camera gear as possible. Oh, and have a good time… In the end, it’s only cycling.
The zine is coming out mid June of this year and I’ll be sharing more updates in the coming days. This won’t be a pre-order— the entire run is being printed right now and will ship within 3-4 days after the launch. In the meantime, here are a handful of frames of the layout!
