I’m Mark Wedgwood. In summer and autumn 2023 I did a very interesting cycle ride between the world’s most tedious paired communities: from Boring (Oregon, USA) to Dull (Scotland, UK). This took me from the west coast of N America to the east coast… and beyond! The details of this ride are below.
NEW for 2025!
I have now embarked on a new adventure. Having cycled from west to east, I decided I now needed to cycle from South to North up the entire eastern coast of N America, starting from Key West, the southernmost point in the continental USA. I will be blogging each day as I make my way, initially from Key West to Boston over about five weeks, starting on 15 March 2025.
2023 – Boring to Dull
I left Boring on 9th August – officially “Boring and Dull Day” – on a 4,000-mile odyssey. I will cross a dozen US states (and Ontario, Canada), then the north of Iceland – to visit the Arctic Circle – followed by the Faroes and finally Scotland. It takes in some remarkable and varied geography, people and culture. It should, indeed, be really interesting!
