6500 km, from Alaska to California . No, it is not the title of a new film or the plot of a TV series, but the journey of Chiara and Michiel, a wonderful adventure with the background of love and a bicycle. He Michiel Desmet on a Hand Bike , she Chiara Maffina , joins him on a traditional bike, covering kilometers together, crossing the wonder of North American nature between sun, pouring rain and wind.
A beautiful story to which we at Fantacycling have decided to give space and that maybe, we will tell you better, with those directly interested, when their splendid journey is over.
You can follow the stages of Michiel and Chiara's journey also on YouTube

Currently Michiel and Chiara are in Washington state and have traveled about 4200 km. There is still a long way to go, but the goal is to at least get to Los Angeles , California or maybe Mexico. We can only give a big round of applause to these guys and wait for them when their wonderful journey arrives.
