I had the same problem with the saddlebag. I recommend putting the tent pole in that bag.
Good idea, thanks for sharing!
That looks sooo fun!!
It was such an adventure!
We stopped in Johnsondale on our summer (road) tour but got kicked out after getting a little too casual, busting out the hammock and cooking some lunch by the water, oops!
Sounds like an unexpected turn during your road tour! Despite the hiccup, it likely added a memorable twist to your journey. Safe travels on your future adventures!
What a fun video!!! My family was so entertained and they don't even ride hahaha ya'll are hilarious! Can't wait for part 2
Glad you liked it!! Part two coming soon :)
Enjoyed the video!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
thanks!
Top ❤
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed :)
This deserves more comments.
I'm glad you've left two already! Thanks compa!
I’m glad you guys vlogged this one. I like the California bikepacking vids and this is a beautiful trip! Heavy duty ride with all the climbing but so beautiful!
Yay, thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed! There’s so much more to discover here in Cali but this particular bikepacking trip was truly a gem!
Great video, looking forward to day2 & 3 videos. I used to run a big Apidura seat bag, but am a convert to rear racks. They are so much more stable than the seat bag and don't weigh all that much. Got one for $50 at my LBS, you don't nec. have to splurge on a Tailfin...
Thank you for watching and your kind feedback! Hope you enjoy our day 2 & 3 videos.
Rear racks do offer great stability, and I appreciate the suggestion! I need to go check my own LBS! Thanks again!
You guys need a Leatherman Wave Multitool and Katadyn Pocket water filter.
Thanks for watching, will look into those, we appreciate your recommendations!
@@lifesagem Where is that meadow on your trip? I want to take my ebike and ride there.
or just a new Lifestraw Peak water filter. Way smaller and very capable
My favourite filter is the Sawyer Products MINI Water Filtration System. Super small and will filter forever and they are so inexpensive! Can also be used inline with a bladder, sipped through with a straw, or squeeze water through with a foil bag. Only carrying water I needed and being able to refill was liberating!!!
How cute❤ @ 13:03🥰
Thanks!
@lifesagem That funny how you said one of your viewers said how come you and Joe never kiss😁 you both are awesome!👍
Another epic video beautiful views you guys are hilarious 😆 how exciting Joe is hilarious with the first course lol🤣🤣🤣 sooo excited looking forward for part 2 awesome job guy’s 🔥💪🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽 you guys are troopers
Thank you so much 😁 Haha Joe and Brandon crack me up! Always a blast riding with friends :)
Did you replace the Topstone? Did not like it? You can get a really cheap, lightweight aluminium rack and this will be good enough to keep the bags off the wheel, even if they are not designed for that type of rack.
jUst got a whole new system, will update you once I go on another bikepacking adventure! Cheers
Awesome video! Frame ( and half frame) are your friend, helps you keep more aero and you can keep a ton of stuff in them. You can also use water bladders. Rogue panda makes great and very aesthetic frame bags…
Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I couldn't agree more - frame bags (and half frame bags) are fantastic for staying aerodynamic and carrying a lot of gear. I'll definitely check out Rogue Panda for some stylish and functional frame bags. Your recommendations are greatly appreciated!
Love it guys - Gemma look at the Tailfin rack system its sturdy and lightweight.
I love these adventure rides. Ride on!
Thanks! That's what Brandon has! I've been considering switching to that system :) Thanks for the recommendation !!
waoo… I just drove there last week. Its so scenic- i saw cyclists from Fresno side
Awesome! That whole area is insane!! I'm surprised there aren't more cyclists in the segments around the area. You almost ran into us haha
did you find the can opener? will this be included in part 2?
Haha, the lovely camp host let me borrow his! I was too hungry to record the part where I opened it and devoured the beans. Glad you were intrigued lol! Part two coming soon :)
looks like you also can do one day loop ride with this route.
The route shown in this video was done in one day :) Thanks for watching!
What's the system that your friend has on the epic?
Hello, my friend has the Tailfin system!
hi from san francisco!
Hello there! Thanks for watching, and for all your feedback!
Brandon is cousin Greg.
