Bernard & Sarah Wragge-Morley
Bernie and Sarah have been cycle touring together in various parts of the world for the past 20 years. Now both on the higher side of 66, they travel slowly but love the mountains. They actually started as mountain bikers, or at least Bernie was a mountain biker and Sarah cycled up mountains but was not skilled enough to cycle down them the right way up, some things never change! They started touring around Europe for 2 or 3 weeks at a time during work holidays then as they retired the trips got longer. They love off-road touring which they have done in more than 21 countries including in Europe, India, Australia, South America, North America, New Zealand and their latest trip, Cornwall to Scotland off-road. They have ridden several off-road routes designed as races such as the Great Divide in the USA, Tour Aotearoa End to End in New Zealand and the Hunt 1000 in the Snowy Mountains Australia, but at their own snails space, as well as many routes of their own devising. Bernie, being an engineer, has built their last two fat bikes, including the wheels. They have a blog www.wraggemorleycycles.com on which Sarah writes touring blogs and about plants and flowers found on trips and Bernie writes technical articles on bike building, mapping, cooking on tour and touring equipment.

Hear about Bernie and Sarah’s first visit to South America when they spent 3 months cycling in beautiful Colombia and Ecuador. It combines some road cycling and some very remote and steep off-road which, as usual, did not always go quite as expected.
