A Journey to the Falkland Islands – photo gallery

Delicious leftovers from John Hellowell’s epic Falkland biking odyssey on the far side of the world in Singletrack Magazine Issue 161.

International Adventure: Mountain Biking at the Bottom of the World

John Hellowell takes us to the Falkland Islands. Think the scenery of the Scottish isles, but the size of Wales. With penguins.

Here’s a gallery of great pics that didn’t make into the magazine feature. Enjoy!
