Human Powered Adventures

By Rob Savin

Pedal or paddle, it’s human power that drives the best adventures. Feel your heartbeat sync with the rhythm of exploration and ride toward the next horizon.

To hear Jenny Graham and Lee Craigie talk about their adventures is to know the joy of spending time outside.

In this webinar, Al Humphreys talks to Jenny and Lee Craigie from Adventure Syndicate about their cycling career, how they got into cycling, why they love it so much and their plans for 2021.

This year Jenny and Lee are taking on their Source to Sea project, where they will be paddling three of Scotland's rivers from source to sea. Find out more at The Adventure Syndicate.

Get inspired, pick up some tips and hear the answers to some brilliant questions asked by the audience on the night.

Here's a bit about our panelists.
