My level of twitch is growing leaps and bounds. Maybe it's the overtime my brain has these days. Maybe it's the need for something new to replace the hole left by what was known. Maybe it's just the amazing photography and stories told by these guys.
No matter the reason, it's coming. This fall, maybe sooner, I intend to try my hand at some sort of bikepacking. I envision a cx bike, rural paved and clay roads, and destinations like Suwannee River, or Lake Seminole; maybe somewhere over by Marianna. I foresee swimming in cold refreshing water at the end of a long dusty day on the road.
My skills are limited by my ignorance of what is needed, but my intelligence will fill in the gaps either by trial and error, or proper guidance. Personally, I hope for the proper guidance route.

Check out the Reverend. Nobody surpasses his style for bikepacking.

I'm very familiar with the Rev! He definitely comes off a little more low rent than these other guys; probably a lot closer to what I hope to achieve around here. I love the way he stashes beer in the water holes, to grab at a later date.
I really want to learn to camp. We have to invite Jauncho and Cupcake so we can eat well....and I guess they aren't all that bad as people.
First off Chris, keep your chin up! Next up, WB, to say you "really want to learn to camp" has got to be one of the gayest things I have ever heard come out of a males mouth. It's pretty simple you know, just stay outside, eventually you'll be camping
Boom! That is hilarious.
I'd like to do a little "car camping" first. I camped when I traveled by motorcycle and don't have fond memories of it.
WB's comment is not that gay.
You can come with me WB; I'll show you how. Just two men alone in the woods by a fire with nothing but warm hotdogs for dinner and some of the fudge I will pack for desert.
Magnum and 007, I can't stop laughing......sorry HWB
007, it's probably not as gay as yelling; "I'm coming to get you!" the last time we raced and then never getting there.
Mags, not much of a hot dog fan, I prefer tacos. I'm not down with fudge either, packed or other wise.
Bastards!
