Wheel Paradise

Adventures on Two Wheels

Welcome to Wheel Paradise. I have a passion for cycling. Predominantly road biking, but you will occasionally find me getting dirty on a mountain bike as well. I have been cycling in events/races, on teams, crewed for Race Across America (a 3000 mile bike race across the country), as a coach, and as a bike tour company domestique, all locally and in far-flung places for over thirty years. I have worked in cycling apparel industry and met people in the industry from all over the world. I have become friends with several former pro cyclists and have been blessed with learning their stories and their tips over countless miles spent on the bicycle.

Wheel Paradise was designed, not only to share my experiences on the bike - anecdotes, travel stories, and guided tours that I joined, but also to provide reviews of the countless bike tour trips that are out there. Cycling, as a form of exercise, in the United States has boomed over the last 15 years (partially thanks to disgraced Lance Armstrong) and with that, countless bike touring companies cropped up with offerings all over the world. I look forward to providing you with honest reviews of these trips in order to assist you in finding the perfect one for you!!

Are you up for a cycling adventure either stateside or on the other side of the world? Well, you have found a passionate source of information that will guide you there. So, strap in and grab your passport/id, your excitement and your wanderlust!!

Cheers,

Jocelyn Weingart Ray
