Introducing the "Third Idiot":

Adrian Cyr

Picture
Adrian Cyr is a chef who resides in Truro, Cape Cod where he and his family have run his namesake seasonal restaurant for the past 25 years.  The off season brings Adrian to Cambridge MA, where he has been a chef/ instructor at The Cambridge School of Culinary Arts since 1987. Besides running his restaurant and teaching, Adrian surrounds himself with a menagerie of four legged friends and enjoys all of the natural beauty that Truro offers.  His love of travel and all things Italian-- food, culture, art-- have encouraged him to venture beyond the sand spit of the Cape on numerable occasions.  In a spontaneous effort to further expand his horizons, and hoping that his catholic up-bringing will finally pay off, Adrian will join The Idiots on the last leg of their 10,000 mile bike trip through Spain’s Camino de Santiago and onto the finish line in Porto, Portugal.  Armed with a rented bicycle and a large jar of chamois butter, Adrian hopes to complete the ride with a serious amount of fun, laughter, and perhaps a bit of introspective thought. While of course, gaining some new food and wine exposure along the way.

Ellery Althaus

Ellery Althaus grew up and continues to live in his parents house in North Truro, Ma on Cape Cod, where his childhood was a strange blend of forced travel and poetry.  Right out of highschool Ellery began travelling on his own, in 2001 he and Nathan Tarvers did a 2 month mountain bike trip through the Rocky Mountains along the Great Divide.  Ellery then started  studying at Alfred University with Levi, where his love of travel and all things Russian was cemented.  He went on to study abroad in St. Petersburg, Russia, Cape Town, South Africa and Florence, Italy and eventually graduated from the University of Massachusetts with a degree in History.  Also in 2006 Ellery, Levi and Nate walked the Camio de Santiago, sadly though, Nathan Tarvers is now married and unable to attend this trip.

Levi Bridges

Levi Bridges was born and raised on a farm in the hinterland of Maine, an experience which both instilled a love of the outdoors with a profound and irrepressible desire to know everything about the world beyond. Acting on these impulses has taken him on scores of adventures through the U.S., Europe, Central and South America. He graduated from Alfred University in Alfred, New York, earning a double major in Spanish and English Literature, during which he completed semesters in Granada, Spain and Mexico City. Levi has spent much of the past two years living, working, studying, and traveling around Latin America where he has published freelance writing pieces on subjects diverse as urban development problems, border issues, immigration, and the plight of refugees from the civil conflict in Colombia. He enjoys being outdoors or tucked inside sharing mad conversation and fine wine with good friends by the hi-fi.
