#GreatWesternRamble – Revisiting Bike Camp 5 Years Later
5 years ago we stumbled dusty, hot and tired into Bike Camp in Twin Bridges, Montana. We had been hearing about this mythical place during our travels. As luck would have it, we ran into Bill White, the man behind Bike Camp and were able to get an interview with him. Although we only talked for a few hours, it left such a profound impression on us and really shaped our path into advocating for rural bike tourism.
This week, we retraced our steps. Bill died a few years ago, but his legacy remains. In this vid, we give a little tour of Twin Bridges and of Bike Camp as well as talk about what it meant to us.
Our first time meeting with Bill White in 2011.

The spirit of Bill White is alive and growing. We opened Spoke’n Hostel in Mitchell, a tiny town along the Trans Am in June of 2016. Within 2 months we’ve hosted nearly 200 travelers. Extending hospitality for the traveler is a simple act of kindness that is often rewarded financially, but the impact is much greater than money. We’ve seen our little town begin to pick its head up again after years of economic doldrum that spawned a feeling of hopelessness. Initiating goodness by way of hospitality has been hard, but it’s well worth it.
