THE TRANSATLANTIC WAY

Personal Project

When our good friends Brad Smith and Matt Roy told us they were headed to Ireland to race in the infamous Transatlantic Way Race, a non-stop 1,500 mile, self-supported bike-packing race between Dublin and Cork via the epic “Wild Atlantic Way” scenic road, we thought, this just might make one helluva personal project. So we followed them as they trained, riding all over a rainy spring in New England, then we hopped a plane, rented a van, and watched them pedal their entire wild journey circumnavigating Ireland, on bikes they built themselves no less. Talk about humbling.
