Oh, yes. My longest sea kayak trip was 90+ days. Solo. Self supported in open ocean coastline. I've also done several 7-14 day solos in Alaska.

It's funny to me what some people think is packing light. Many of my bikepacking friends also travel by motorcycle. We pack so light on our bicycles that traveling by moto, even with something as simple as a Giant Loop bag, seems luxuriously overpacked. I did a couple trips last summer with...

I'm going to say it because I can't help myself - I can't stand Brooks seats. :) I tried to like them years ago. I had one on my mountain bike not all too long ago, and again, couldn't wait to get it off my bike at the end of the season. Carry on. :bike_rider:

With that expectation, I think you'd like it. I hate overly padded saddles, so the Thudbuster does just what you would ask of it - take the edge off.

I dig it. I remember trying a Thudbuster years ago, probably 12 years, and really hating it. I think at that time it was being positioned as a suspension solution to some degree, and as such was doomed to fail. I'm a relatively lean rider at 6' and only 165 pounds, so I went with the medium...

The more I ride their bikes, the deeper my appreciation. I just really like what they do. They rock the adventure by bike mode with authenticity. But, they've been very fun partners with ExPo and OJ, which makes it all the more easy to jump on their wagon.

What a great bike. You can read my final thoughts after nearly a year on this bike here: http://expeditionportal.com/long-term-wrap-up-salsa-fargo-ti/ I have to admit, 2,000 miles is not a great deal of time on this bike. But, once I got the Bucksaw it was a very hard choice every day deciding...

I just returned from Ecuador and one of the best motorcycle rides of my life. I never knew it to be such a great place to ride, but Ecuador was just incredible. I'll have more detailed trip reports coming soon in Overland Journal and here on ExPo, but for now there's a little recap of the...

Im going to re-list it with DT 350/Stans wheels as an option for $3300. Smoking deal. The ENVE wheels I would sell separately for $1500.

Yes, the low ball offers have been ROLLING in. $2200 was cute. :) Another Form owner told me he was going to list his for $6500. Mmmmkay. His has Shimano LX/XT and Stans rims. What eves.

Ding, ding, ding. Black Canyon Trail. From the Pie Cafe trailhead to Table Mesa Road.

That's little old me. Photo credit goes to Adrian Marcoux

If you buy it, I'll throw in pedals, a milkshake, two parakeets, an old betamax tape of the Blues Brothers, and any change I can find in my car seats. :) It is a really beautiful machine. Someone is going to get one helluva deal, even at this price. The wheels were $2700 by themselves. The...

(more images available on request. I have scads of them) I have for sale a pristine Form Cycles Prevail 29er. This is effectively a size large and in immaculate condition with not so much as a scratch on it. Frame Details: Full custom titanium construction with a PF30 bottom bracket, 44ID...

That's a rad bike, Todd. Ti and XTR. Doesn't bet much better.

That's awesome. What are your bikepackng plans? Anything we can do to help?

It's definitely contrived and injected with a lot of made-for-video drama. It's also dubious as a proper bicycle trip as there's no way they rode much on those bikes, or had all the gear and supplies needed to be out unsupported for more than a night. Play this in front of an audience of...

Best mats on the planet. Period. I worked in the outdoor industry as a buyer for years and also compiled the sleeping pad test for Overland Journal a while back. The Mega Mat is in a league of its own. I could go on about why, but just know those pads smoke other pads on a number of metrics...

Looks awful to me. Wonder how much "riding" they did. Props to them for the effort. Impressive.

Nope. Headed to Silverton with our own Brian McVickers to bikepack the CoTrail to Durango. I had tons of professional and personal reasons to go to Vegas, but..... I really hate trade shows. The thought of going to SEMA makes my heart sink.
