Incredible ride with an incredible bike setup! Also you're one of the first persons (youtuber) I see, that does such a ride on a rim brake bike. Thank you so much for the inspiration and keep it up! I'm planning my first self supported multi day bike packing trip because of you.

That Tailfin’s like a tardis! Congrats again on such an epic achievement. I once heard someone say that success is where preparation and opportunity meet; and your preparation across the board definitely appears to be a huge part of your success. It’s really good to see the amount of graft that goes into getting where you are, because it shows us all that with perseverance, preparation, and a positive mental attitude, we all stand a chance of achieving our goals☺️ xx

Hello Kooka "donkey" (in Spanish). The Spanish thing is an irony for travelers who from time to time leave Boris (the squatter at 10 Downing St) and come to the "warmth of the south". In recent years, KZfaqrs and the "bicycle business" proposed us to carry bags on the handlebars (grills, baskets...) now a "carbon support" (expensive) to carry a "little bag with things", on top of the back wheel. The "bicycle business" will soon propose the usual saddlebags, and they will also "sell" us the advantages of the low center of gravity.

I had at least twice what Katie had here, but I was never going to be a top ten. Slept out each night, so it’s horses for courses, no sleep, hotel, camping, the best sleeping bag I have ever used and so tiny is the SEA TO SUMMIT SPARK there are 4 in the series so test which is best for you and your season. They have a unisex ( which means men ) sleeping bag so for women check out YETI now NORDISK for female bags, worth the effort getting a female bag if your a female as ratings are different (sort of) manufacturing shape is better suited. Air mat was a neoair by thermarest but they puncture easily. check out how sleeping bags work because “no air mat no warm” simply put. And a bivi bag. But I am yet to get a mech hanger rather worryingly.

@davidalderson7761 2 жыл бұрын

You need to be sure about R values. Sleeping bag companies are supposed to rate there stuff based on testing and common testing BUT….. Anyway a female bag is probably best but some women will be fine in a mens or unisex ( mens ) I suspect NORDisk Passion used to be called YETI ( I had a bag from them years ago ) would sort out female sleeping bag shape style and stuffing of insulation. R values state a bag is tested with a air mat or insulated mat underneath that is I think R6 to R8 or something. A small light air mat is likely to be R3 to R4 which is a compromise. And the sleeper needs to have a full length base layer so if you don’t you compromise again a tiny bit. Check out sea to summit spark ( but they are mens bags ) I just do completed North Cape 4000 and slept in a hotel for 4 nights only. Two were due to issues thst needed sorting in town and a train ride away so hotel it was. I was totally comfortable in the woods and slept very well indeed. Every one can. Bikepacking from hotel to hotel isn’t bickpacking. And packing for stays in hotels and not the woods isn’t bike packing either. Bike packing races need to be sleeping out and not hotel hopping. That’s called cycling between hotels and anyone can do that. Top places to talk and see what’s what are :- LD Mountain in Newcastle The Ultra Light outdoor gear in Darlington If a shop doesn’t know what a womens specific sleeping bag is walk out. If you comfortable in a man’s bag or a unisex bag then sea to summit I have used Spark 2 but I will get a spark 1 too was perfect from Alba Ultra and APN22 and north cape 4000 all in 2022. For APN and Alba Ultra I slept outside each night.

With a little research I'm really impressed with Ribble Bikes and for your application and the riding you do have your entire kit down to a fine science, particularly the generating hub lighting setup and concise tools for mechanicals. Unfortunately there is no distribution for Ribble in Canada but I believe you can order them direct and pay duties. I've sold bikes and spun wrenches for a living but have kind of moved on from the retail side and am framing Art now. Nothing will stop me from keeping up with bike and sport gear though! I'm currently down to a F-sus Turner MTB, a Giant Cross bike and a Norco Fat bike for winter. You can't just have one bike!

@christopherhood9241 2 жыл бұрын

sadly I found their (Ribble) customer service well, unless to be honest. I took a particular dislike to the lack of attention where the tubes on the frame where welded. I opted in the end purchasing a frame from Mason cycles and built the bike myself. I have to say Mason cycles where bl00dy awesome, beautiful bike with great customer support/help.

Always wonder how it feels to ride on a Dinamo... Did and Have never invested in one why? well is a Cost-Benefit thing, Seems in my Educated guess one needs to put some power/speed minimum to generate a good decent light out there, And needs to be constant ... Here where I live we have hills and mountains everywhere... and probably any good bike packed experience is full of climbing even on nights ... and mostly off-road surfaces, probably climbing under 10 km hr perhaps 7 average... some times less... soo I will keep asking ... in your experience KK, do you think will it work for me (a Dinamo)? am sure in descents should be fine and better than my current set up that is barely a 1000 lamp sometimes on 500 because we use it on low to endure all night. your thoughts on it?

I used to have a dynamo on my bike as a kid in the 80s/90s and it was a noisy drag that required more puff to overcome the inertia than I had in my skinny legs, managing only to get the slightest trickle of light out of it once I'd got over the starting hump. But I imagine technology has come a long way since then, not to mention the size of my quads...🦵⚡🦵
