My name is Chris Evans. I'm passionate about riding bikes, and I film my adventures along the way.
Anza-Borrego Redux
In 2021, I had a difficult experience riding my vintage Trek through the badlands of Anza-Borrego Desert SP. A lack of knowledge regarding the conditions I would face, tires that were entirely too narrow for the terrain, and temperatures that were already pushing 100 degrees in early April, led to an experience I will not soon forget. Fast forward to 2022, having learned my lesson, I was determined to return to this section of Anza-Borrego and do it "right". Equipped with E-bikes and my Dad, we entered the badlands once again to settle an old score.
One of the original videos on this channel briefly documented the story of how my 3-day bikepacking trip in the back country of San Diego County ended. The link to that video is below:

Here is a more detailed description of the ride in 2021:

Most of the footage in today's video is never before seen archive footage of the events that led up to the abrupt ending to my bikepacking trip in 2021, juxtaposed with my return trip this year to tackle the badlands of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park once and for all.
I hope you enjoy the video.

The Penultimate Day | Journey SFSD | Part 6

Fatigue and early signs of knee pain began creeping in today. I've noticed the amount of video footage I take goes down as I get more and more tired on the bike! Was stuck under the classic SoCal marine layer almost all day, which kept my head down and focused on riding the 105 miles I had planned. Almost to San Diego! Note: The thumbnail photo is an actual sign I passed near Palo Verdes, which...

Headwinds | Journey SFSD | Part 4

The highs of yesterday lead to the lowest lows on day 4. Headwinds found me for 60 miles this day, and after the effort of day 3, this was by far the toughest day.

The struggles of yesterday were put behind me as the California coast did not disappoint! Hands down my favorite day of the entire trip, albeit one of the toughest ones. Over 7k ft in climbing down the remote and stunningly beautiful coast. I thought the length and climbing might take me into darkness, but I made it to San Simeon just as the sun was setting. There was little time to rest though...
