BIKEPACKING CATALINA ISLAND
Enjoyed an unforgettable bikepacking trip to Catalina Island with amazing friends! From scenic ferry rides to conquering many steep climbs and spotting buffalo, every moment was pure joy. Ended the day with hearty meals and the island's charming ambiance in Avalon. Catalina, you've stolen our hearts! #CatalinaIsland #BikepackingAdventure #ExploreWithFriends

To celebrate our 5th year anniversary Joe and I decided to take on the challenge of riding up the largest volcano in the world and trust me, we didn't opt for the easy route. No, no. We chose the less travel path, the one that adds a bit more spice to our celebration.

    That's one of the most underrated climbs around LA. It also has spectacular views almost the entire time. Did you make it up to the actual peak where all the corrugated metal is on the ground? 360° of amazing views. I did that climb a couple weeks ago and descended down Barrett Stoddard and it was brutal but awesome.

    I think i would bring a extra fire starter if that wasn't mentioned. You don't want to have to make a friction fire if the lighter breaks probably worth the small amount of extra weight with two lighters actually, same type so you can swap parts etc.

    Laces are better because if you ever crash and have to be taken to hospital the hospital staff will cut the laces to remove the shoes. If you had the BOA system your shoes would be trash because a lot of those designs the wires cannot be replaced. Laces can always be re replaced.

      @@lifesagemI watch a lot of cycling YTers. Audio is always a challenge due to wind noise, clothing and just poor quality recording. This is a winner. I'm listening on a set of good quality stereo speakers and it sounds like you're right there. There is no wind noise and the levels are perfect. Additionally, you are not riding with earphones which is much safer, and there's even no dead cat to see.
