What does it mean when I say that “My passion is finding routes that make people… respond” ? You really should come on of our Jemison Cycling Tours trips to find out, but I will try to give you an idea here.
First I start with spending countless hours exploring every kilometer of asphalt, concrete and path that I can find. I have an insatiable appetite for this. I have to know the lay of the land, its geography and what might connect it all.
Once I’ve ridden every route my mind starts churning out possible roads to link together something that will be known as another ‘Marty’ route. Like an artist that starts out with a clean canvas, not knowing what the final result will be… It’s something that comes from within. The final route ties together roads that flow with a rhythm. Like a musical composition that comes together and leaves an impression.
With our cycling tours, I usually have 7 rides and about 500-600 kms to link everything beautiful together. If I know of a road, a climb a cultural sight, or anything that evokes the senses, I must not leave it out…
Lets ride!
Marty Jemison
