Host Karen Duncan talks about her new inspiration of cycling throughout the world inspired by guest speaker Russ Hoefer of Bike Tour Finders. Karen and Russ discuss the types of tours available such as brewery tours, wine tours, foodie tours, organized tours and the granddaddy of them all the Grann Fondos that's multi-day and destinations. Karen and Russ even discuss the different levels of tours and types of bikes to do them. Then Karen is joined by Dave Deen of Too Many Adapters to have a discussion of which apps all international travelers should have on their devices in case of emergency. Did you know there is an app for people with food allergies that can help them stay healthy in a country where they don't speak the language? AllergyFT is just one of the invaluable apps available.  Others include Tripit that can house your entire itinerary so that you get notified of flight changes, cancellations, gate changes, tour times, and hotel confirmations. You'll never be without your trip details.  And Dropbox can be a huge help in the event of a lost credit card or even when your bank stops your card because you forgot to tell them you were leaving.  Loads of information awaits.
