Welcome to.. The Ocean Cyclist!

My name is M. Scott Ault and I am currently building a Pedal Powered Boat that I will pilot entirely around the planet! 100% Pedal Propelled.. and 100% Pedal Powered! No solar, No gas back up.. and very likely.. 100% UNSUPPORTED.

Why am I doing this?

My goal is to educate people to adopt sustainable lifestyle methods.. of which, I feel that CYCLING is a core competency.

At a time when rollbacks, clawbacks, and regressions are prevalent worldwide.. we need to spotlight climate chaos and any/ all method(s) we can adopt individually and/ or socially.. in order to slow or even stop the heating up of our  planet.. the ONLY planet we have to live on.

So I’m gonna CYCLE in a small/ MICRO boat the entire circumference of our planet.. a distance of about 45,000Km. Think I can do it? Boat’s almost built so.. we’re getting ready to *set sail!

Where?

I’ll be leaving from Vancouver, BC. and after navigating southwards to San Fransisco, I’ll be heading in a generally westerly direction. Learn more about my route, destination choices, and hybrid broadcast events HERE.

When?

Who Am I?

well, we already know that my name is M. Scott Ault.. 

I grew up in a town of no consequence.. and realized at a rather young age that it was nothing to me.. it meant nothing.. but life- TO LIVE- meant everything. I was abused/ am the victim of abuse and am working to reach “survivor” status. I was a competitive triathlete in the early 90’s before delving in to the world of commercial painting. As a commercial painter, I’ve commuted by bicycle to nearly all of my worksites, most of which were in the Lower Mainland (Vancouver, BC area). 

I dropped out in 1990, after being arrested for protesting the logging of Teme Augama Anishanbai forests. I meandered around N. America for several years.. sometimes I’d be found in the small town of Banff, AB.. sometimes in the planting fields reforesting the world to a tune of over 1,000,000 seedlings.. sometimes I’d be seen hitch hiking or cycling along highways and biways of N. America in search of.. reality.. truth.. MySelf!

I am an alternative individual.. I’m an artist, an author, an adventurist.. and I’ve always been somewhat athletic- preferring to cycle places rather than shunting myself around in public transit. My home has been found in Kelowna, Vancouver, and Calgary.. with recent relocation taking place to Terrace, BC.
