Here's a little inspiration during these dark winter days, or for when you are wondering why you are doing what you are doing, from Casey Sheppard's, Case of the Nomads.
I’m currently working on a project that I need help promoting. I thought you might enjoy what I’m doing. On July 1st 2015 I left Los Angeles, CA on a year long road trip to connect communities: bike and art. I’ve traveled over 15,00 miles, visited over 20 universities, art centers and clubs along with camping all over the US and I have meet fellow adventures like Roz Savage and Kenton Cool. I’ve attached my website for more details.
I’m busy planning and getting ready to head to the desert to kick off the second half of Case of the Nomads. There is a lot in the works for this year: workshops, lectures, artist visits, trunk shows, mountain bike coach training and much much more.
I’ve also launched a fundraiser event that is for this week only. I've found that fundraising is an essential part of this journey and thanks to others support this trip has been possible. This current fundraiser isn't about supporting a nomadic lifestyle but to support others willing to dare to dream then make it happen. When you help out you become part of this grand adventure and as an added bonus, you receive a gift from the road in return. Gifts include drawings, watercolors, framed photo prints and jewelry all created by me while traveling. There will also be an online thank you to all contributors at the end of the fundraiser that will appear on my website, newsletter and social media. I hope you are able to take part in this event which ends on January 13th at 3pm CST.
