Adventure Blog Roundup
Over the last week I’ve been expanding my subscription to adventure blogs, covering as wide a range of activities as possible from around the world. It’s a work in progress but I’m hoping to post a few links here on a daily basis.
If you want to stay up to date in the world of adventure, subscribe to our RSS feed and let me do the hard work for you.
Caving
An international team of cavers have discovered an immense new cave shaft near the village of Tian Xing, China. The photos are beautiful.
There’s something about caving that really appeals to me. The idea of exploring new cave systems is so exciting. Loads of my adventurous friends say that caving is just a step too far for them, but when you look at images like this you wonder how anyone could pass up the opportunity.
Cycling
Very happy to see when people are defiant about continuing their sport through winter. Tejvan Pettinger from Cycling Info gives some tips on cycling in winter and Jeff Barber from SingleTracks celebrates the start of the night riding season.
Mountaineering
Thanks to Runout (GetOutdoors) for the heads up on Subaru’s concept car, the Mountain Rescue Vehicle. It may not seem very practical but I think it looks great. Granted, my shallow tastes might change if I were stuck in snowy conditions watching my rescue vehicle slide back down the mountain.
Cliff Jumping
It’s a couple of weeks old now but ProTravellers has put together the 7 Most Extreme Cliff Dives on Earth. Club Conch was cliff diving a few weeks ago. Great fun.
That’s it for now. I’m always looking for more adventure blogs so feel free to post more in the comments or, if you’re a member of The Conch, search for simonjermy and send me a message.
