    Man, I need a Rob in my life

      Good luck finding a Rob. They are wild, disheveled, and will test your patience, but they are pretty fun to ride bikes with.

    Love these videos. After RAGRAI this coming summer we plan on visiting the PNW and doing some trail riding. Right now we are winter caretakers on a very small island off the coast of New England. Videos like yours are helping pass some time on this beautiful however isolated place.

    That's so cool, you combined bikepacking and backpacking adventure into one! 👍
    A few years ago I did something similar but on the paved flat road. I rode cycled 450 miles from Jacksonville Florida to Franklin North Carolina in six days to hike to have a four day hike with friends.

    Very cool. I soloed via the Adams Glacier in the mid 80's. That summit hut had just a few boards showing under the snow.

    Cool that you guys were able to do a trip, sharing mutual adventures. Also cool that you guys are friends and ride together. It’s hard to find fellow cyclists that ride at my pace.
    Nicely done, thanks for sharing! 🤟🤙

    • @pnwbikepacking
      @pnwbikepacking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Karl, I agree, Rob and I are both lucky to have each other as adventure partners. A lot of the time Rob and I are riding at different paces. In the morning I am usually in front, in the evening Rob is crushing me. Sometimes we are out of each others sight line too! There have been many trips where one of us has a bad day so we end up calling it early. I started bikepacking solo! You'll find your Rob!

    Great video as always! They always have the perfect mix of narration to in-video chatting. Have you talked about what camera you're currently using?

    • @pnwbikepacking
      @pnwbikepacking  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man! I always struggle the the balance of narration and in-video chat. I use a Sony a7siii, I have had it for several years now and love it. I've though about making a video about the video equipment I use on bikepacking trips... Maybe 2023!

      @pnwbikepacking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! For the mount hood adventure I used a Dan Durstom xmid pro 2. I’ve only used it twice so far. For most of my subsequent trips this year I’ve opted heartier tents. (Tarp tent scarp).

    Spectacular. Love the ambition of this sort of multisport climb. I'd be super pumped to see you guys take a stab at Rainier like this.
    Were you using an Insta360 on this one? I may be wrong, but I don't remember seeing shots like some of these before. Looked awesome Chris.

    Another great one, guys. So .... the 'poop' thing - not biodegrading. How did I get this old (78) and not know about this? Is it just in certain types of climate? Has someone wrote a book on it? Thanks for keeping me entertained, and informed.

    • @pnwbikepacking
      @pnwbikepacking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Terry! My main camera is a Sony A7siii. It's really designed to be more of a video camera, but it can take a decent still shot. Hard to get a bad shot of a sunset like that with a modern camera!
