How to Make a Bicycle Travel Video: 6 Expert Posts

February 13, 2013

In September, Adventure Cycling announced its first Bicycle Travel Video Contest. Since then, we've enjoyed a slew of submissions from touring cyclists around the globe. We've also had the great pleasure of publishing a series of how-to posts on creating bike-touring videos, contributed by some of our volunteer judges -- all experienced touring cyclists and knowledgeable videographers. Their posts covered everything from storytelling to equipment.

We thought it would be fun to offer a round up of those expert posts so you can enjoy them all in one place.
