Bikes 🚲

It’s test weekend for the bikepacking rig. This morning was the inaugural ride on the new parts but sans baggage.

Got it shifting good with the new sprocket, short chain and think I’ve finally solved some slow leaks out of the sidewalls of these “tubeless” tires. 

32 teeth up front is indeed pretty small! 21mph max 😂 Shouldn’t be too bad on gravel, hills and loaded down with bags. Fully loaded test ride tomorrow! 

The light this am was so nice 😊

An edited version of this https://bikepacking.com/routes/chauga-river-ramble/. I have some family that lives nearby. Will be editing for distance and more familiar camping spots. Never been in the fall season before so I’m pumped to experience that vs the summer when we usually visit.
