A small team of skiers strapped an obnoxious amount of gear to bicycles and rode through arctic Norway. Connecting craggy islands by underwater tunnels, they climbed and skied mountains along the length of the Lofoten archipelago. Gear failed, partners bailed, and spirits wavered. But after camping on snow-covered beaches, what they found at the end of the peninsula made them look deeper inside themselves and their motives.
I'd done this once before, in 2014, and I said I'd never do it again.
I did.

Videographer Joey Schuster and photographer Kt Miller joined me as I pedaled 300 miles through the arctic winter with a bicycle that weighed, um, a lot more than I do.
We wanted to make a film about it. And we did.
But first, a lot went wrong.

Hello, World!
A small team of skiers strapped an obnoxious amount of gear to bicycles and rode through cold, arctic Norway. Connecting mountainous islands with underwater tunnels, they climbed and skied mountains along the length of the Lofoten archipelago. With gear failing and partners bailing, spirits wavered.
REDirect Explore Fan Favorite- Joey Schusler "Pace - Pedal to Peaks" Pedal to Peaks Brody Leven and KT Miller will forego motorized vehicles in favor of moving slowly. They'll bike the coastline of Lofoten, Norway, one of the earth's most scenic ski-to-sea archipelagos, loaded with ample amounts of gear (arguably too much!).
Brody Leven seeks out discomfort. In 2014 he set out on his first pedal to peaks trip with a plan to bike to and ski Mount Adams, Mount Saint Helens, and Mount Rainier. With over 200 lbs of ski, camp, bike, and glacier equipment he climbed over 55,000 vertical feet throughout the 500 mile trip.
“Your movie impressed the public with its storytelling, wit and your unpretentious approach to adventures. It also made some us want to go and explore Norway! ”
