Our ambassador and adventure cyclist, @SarahJSwallow, is setting out on her latest challenge: riding as far west as she can in 40 days while testing Adventure Cycling Association’s Golden Gravel Trail launching in 2026. This isn’t her first long ride. Back in 2015, Sarah and her partner made history as the first to complete the 5,000-mile Trans-America Trail, a route that crosses the country almost entirely on gravel roads. Now, she’s back on the trail to help shape the future of adventure cycling. Sarah is testing and promoting Adventure Cycling Association’s Golden Gravel Trail, which will span eight states, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Oregon. This updated route is set to launch in 2026. Follow Sarah’s journey on her personal account, and learn more about the route through the link in our bio.
