Hey Pete! Troy Nicolls here. Me and my buddy Cory Rhea met you on the trail in the Trout Creeks last week (I was the one with the fruity homemade gear).Only true DS rider weve ever met in 7 years... and solo no less. We made 948 miles back to Fields. What an AWESOME ride. Great dissertation on ultralight gear. Right up my alley... except for my archaic and heavy DRZ. It's not hard to go light if you have the right gear and leave your cordless toothbrushes at home. Looks like a great ride. Was very nice meeting you and hope to meet again someday! Safe Journeys.

Awesome recap video guys! Stoked to see you hone in the weight / gear ratios to allow riding more advanced singletrack at a faster pace. It's quite challenging to ride the more technical terrain with a fully loaded / weighted Reckless 40 with gas, water, camp gear etc. on the back of a little bike. As much as riding without a backpack is more comfortable and less fatiguing for sure, it does free up the suspension to work better by shifting some of the weight to mid-bike on these sensitive trail bikes. Having more balanced suspension for the long steep hill climbs with large root ledges, narrow singletrack on cliff edges, and tight exposed switchbacks make a difference. I do need to do more testing with getting the sag / preload dialed in for loaded rides. // For the phone battery issue in colder weather / multi-day trips I'm going to test an install of a simple USB charger port hooked up to the bike's battery on the 300 XC. I usually bring a backup charger as you had on this trip, but thinking about saving a little more weight and trying out a built-in charger e.g. BikeMaster USB Charger Kit $23 on Slavens Racing. (Perhaps a downside is you can't plug it in at night while in your bivy / tent...) The USB cable should pair well up to the Quad Lock Phone Mount I've been testing for navigating with the iPhone and it's held up perfectly so far. For very rough sections I sometimes put the phone away in the bar bag for peace of mind, then remount when I need a rolling visual. // Thank you for sharing your explorations to help the rest of us! Hoping to join you guys on some of these super-light moto camp missions in 2022!

A big difference between the two is that the Basilisk is fully waterproof, while the Woodsman is not.

how does this make sense? seems like packing a reckless 40, with compression straps, and ditching all the shit on the body, like back pack, makes more sense versus packing reckless 10 and back pack. back pack places stress on the lower back, leading to more fatigue and long-term deterioration of the discs in the spine. this is one reason that overweight people, especially those carrying weight around the mid section are more likely to suffer back pain and other health challenges. sorry, this packing strategy doesn't seem to make sense. my $0.02 -if it's even worth that.
@Armour7832 жыл бұрын
This exactly. You're still bringing just as much stuff, just throw it in the bikes bags instead of putting additional weight on your body. Their packing doesn't make sense to me either.
@peterday77042 жыл бұрын
That is what we thought too when we first tried to do this same thing last year. We found there were many obstacles which we could not climb or traverse (without a helper lifting and pushing) when all the gear was on the bike. Like uphill root and rock sections on a steep hill for example. You can loft the front wheel easily - because the weight on the back of the bike makes it naturally want to flip backwards - but then the over-weighted back tire rams into the obstacle, throwing your body forward and killing your uphill momentum. Someone else then has to come back to help get you over, which takes forever. Same thing on the next obstacle, and the next one. Trail bikes are sensitive to weight being back over the rear fender vs forward and low on the pegs. Also the added width of the larger bags was sketchy on exposed sidehill rock sections where the gear was rubbing on the rocks on one side, and the other side is a steep drop off. It’s slow going. Those were some of the problems we ran into on earlier versions of this trip. On those trips we covered less terrain in two days than we would in a single day of riding the same bikes without gear. We were getting stuck on things we knew we could normally climb. This time, splitting gear between our bodies and the bikes worked much better. It basically felt like two days of trail riding. Putting gear on your body adds physical fatigue, but it affects the bike much less, so you can get up, over, and through stuff that you wouldn’t otherwise. That’s what I’ve found after much trial & error. Your experience may differ of course. Personally I still don’t wear a backpack when I’m touring on a larger bike on mellower terrain, only on small bikes in harder terrain. Hope that helps explain!
