Recently, I had the honor of hosting Jeff Jenkins, the dynamic founder of Chubby Diaries and a leading voice for inclusive travel, on an unforgettable e-bike tour through the beautiful landscapes of Mariposa, California. Jeff, an award-winning content creator, travel journalist, and entrepreneur, is known for his mission to make travel accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of size or ability. His work has been recognized globally, including by Travel + Leisure as one of the 50 Notable People in Travel, and he's been featured in Forbes, The New York Times, Washington Post, Travel Noire, Essence, and Lonely Planet.

A Unique Ride with a Purpose

Our adventure began with an easy cruise through Mariposa's winding roads, surrounded by the stunning vistas of the Sierra Foothills. The highlight of the day was our visit to two local farms—a Clydesdale horse farm and a mini donkey sanctuary—where we got up close and personal with these lovable animals. Armed with bags of carrots, Jeff and I had a blast feeding the majestic Clydesdales and the playful mini donkeys.
