Czech vs. Chech


As everyone is certainly well aware, there was a bombing last week at the 117th running of the Boston Marathon. With no know terrorists organizations claiming immediate responsibility, an anxious public desperately searched for clues and eagerly waited for answers into the identity of the suspect(s). Wild speculation was the order of the day and pundits "in the know" even went as far as to incorrectly and absurdly spew theories about who did ...

The tallest bike in the world, and a ballsy rider to go with it.


We have been working on a documentary about bike community for about a year now and are nearly finished. It is called Bike Driven, and over the course of the last year we have filmed some serious nutballs riding the funkiest of setups in Denver, even tall bikes, but none this tall. The bike is insane and the ride in the video is from a gathering called LA Bike ...

Czech vs. Chech

As everyone is certainly well aware, there was a bombing last week at the 117th running of the Boston Marathon.  With no known terrorists organizations claiming immediate responsibility, an anxious public desperately searched for clues and eagerly waited for answers into the identity of the suspect(s). Wild speculation was the order of the day and pundits “in the know” even went as far as to incorrectly and absurdly spew theories about who did it, such as Fox News contributor and overall hack Erik Rush, who claimed “Muslims are evil. Let’s kill them all,” and that it was the Saudi’s who were to blame. A Saudi man was initially questioned by Boston Police but released shortly thereafter.

Happy Spring Equinox

Posted on by Steve Bouey Posted in Collective News | Leave a comment

Today, Tuesday, March 20th represents the vernal equinox, or spring equinox. It is one of two points during the year when the length of day and night is essentially the same and it signals the official start of spring, and this year, it’s the earliest start since 1896. Living in Colorado, this is a welcome change of events. After a long, cold and snowy winter, at this point in the year, not only am I ready for spring, I’m ready for summer and the resumption of all the outdoor activities that keep me sane in warmer temperatures.

Welcome to the New TWBR Collective

Posted on by Steven Shoppman Posted in Collective News, Featured | Leave a comment

So what is the Collective? Since finishing the expedition in 2009, we’ve been working on several other projects ranging from a documentary television series about the original expedition to experiential travel guides.  The original expedition website served its purpose well, so we’ve decided to keep it as an archive, memorializing the project that started everything.  Our hope is that it will continue to be a great resource for people who want to learn more about the original expedition, serving as a blueprint for a successful expedition people can use in planning their own adventures.

The 42 Years Later Documentary Project

Posted on by Steven Shoppman Posted in Collective News, Featured | Leave a comment

One of our exciting new projects is the 42 Years Later documentary project.  After the original expedition was stopped in its tracks and forced to divert down the west coast of Africa, we had a personal vendetta against Gaddafi and his unofficial policy of banning Americans from entering Libya.  We still made some contacts  in the process and have now launched a project to answer the question: What does it take to spark a rebellion?
