Bikepack training continues!

Hop on board and tune in to this episode, as the training continues with three consecutive days in a row of riding to test how the legs do each day with stacked riding.

For a long distance bike trip like the one we have planned, there really isn’t adequate training for the thing other than the thing itself…but that being said, we’re still trying to get some fitness under our belts before day 1. Stay tuned to see how we (and by we, I mean Carley) holds up.

Oh, and one of these training days was a completely solo, self supported ride for me to test “How I do all by myself.” Only one major wrong turn that almost took me up into the snowy mountains. Whoops! Thanks to my friend who I coincidentally rode past that day to clue me in to the error of my map reading. You saved me from one reallyyyyy long ride!

Meanwhile, our gear, bags and bike kits are really starting to get dialed in! Stay tuned for an exciting upcoming final gear check video!

We have dreams of living the dirt bag lifestyle one day and doing a long distance thru hike and bike tour.

This is our journey toward accomplishing that goal.

Life is better off grid.
