  • In this video, Rob and I do an overnight trip on the Klickitat Trail. This trip wasn't anything spectacular but we had a great time and got to explore some new areas. Best of all, most of day 1 was riding with a tailwind!
    Hope you enjoy.

    Oh to have someone to travel with by bike. Definitely the dream. So much beautiful scenery!

    Great quote about comparison killing joy. Live in the moment.

    “Comparison is a thief of joy” Amazing quote!! Great video and it’s always a treat to watch you guys on the trail. Cheers Gents!!

    Rob: "Not gonna stand here all day waitin' for ya," [closes gate] "Go to hell". Love it!

    The part where your buddy has wine instead of beer made me proud to be from WA. Thanks for making a video that shines a spotlight on the fact that any day outdoors with friends is a great day. Columbia wind at your back makes you feel like a superhero. Such beautiful county.

    Love it. That's what bikepacking is really about: having a great time out there, alone or with friends 🙌

    Loved this video! Can't decide which motto is better: "Wine is more valuable than water" or "God forbid I stop drinking". Great video, really relaxing...

    "Nothing happened, it wasn't epic" You guys got out there! Nothing average about that!! Every ride centers us, ...we just don't always realize it.👍

    On our trips there is always something not going as planned. Dynamic route management is the word. Also the beer struggle is well known to us 😂

    Really appreciate the opening narrative on this one. I think I've definitely fallen into the trap of feeling like a new story or upload is "unworthy" if it's not bigger and better than the last. This is a great reminder that it doesn't need to be. Excellent trip!
    Also, you're a clipless natural. Well played!

    Loved the quote... the nemesis of every creator. I had a laugh about the SPDs... I'm the opposite. I can't ride flats anymore. As always, great film. (thumbs up)

    Take a trip south and come to AZ. Winter riding here is amazing! Tombstone is always a great trip.

    I think it was about a year ago today we met Rob and his wife. It was nice to see the different landscape of the west so I appreciate the video. Well, except for maybe the snake shots.

    Kept meaning to watch one of y'all's videos. This is the first one just now. Enjoyed it! Is that the same trip when I ran into y'all I think just after Chris caught that fish? Cheers! ~Matt

    Just go on a bike ride and chill. That's what it's all about!

  • @theoutdoorsycrew1749

    Good stuff guys. I think its good to just have a chill trip now and again, gives you an opportunity to enjoy the small moments instead of always trying to meet a deadline and get somewhere in a hurry. Nice video and good stuff with the wine Rob know your priorities on a bikepacking trip ( I would have done the same thing ). Looking forward to your bike-pack raft trip.

    You can fit a full bottle of wine in a Klean Kanteen steel water flask. I've done it. It works so well. 😆

      Pro Tip! I love it!
      I met a guy at a party a few weeks ago that works for that wine company. He said they received thousands of defective cans and some got shipped and the rest had to be opened, poured out and canned again.
      The funny part is that I was working construction in 1985 and helped build that can manufacturing plant. I was so young and that job almost killed me.
      I took the money I made, left the Bay Area, went up to Portland and partied that whole summer.
      Still going! 😁
      Cheers! 🍻

    I hiked the trail down into swale canyon back around 2010. Beautiful area. I saw a cougar and came home with ticks so I never went back but watching this video makes me want to see the rest of the trail

    I was amazed at how nice the weather was there in April! Father’s Day in Wisconsin isn’t until mid June 😂

    • @pnwbikepacking
      @pnwbikepacking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hah, yeah April can be a mixed bag for us, we get some good days and some rubbish days. It's been really wet out here lately so crossing my fingers for some decent weekends in April!

    Another great one! Say, what size tires are you guys running? I have a Surly ECR with 29X3s and an Ogre with 29x2.5s and I go back and forth with myself as to which I like better. Actually, I prefer the 3.0s until I have to climb! Curious what you guys run.

  • @phreadi
    @phreadi 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It is a great day ride. curious if you guys drank the creek water in swale canyon?

  • @mikehellis9168
    @mikehellis9168 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video as all of yours are. Do you have a gps track as I have ridden the route but spent more time on 14 than I wanted to.

  • @jaysarcade
    @jaysarcade 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    No ticks? I was having ptsd trauma watching you guys ride through that tall grass knowing how bad the ticks are in that area. Swale canyon and Dalles Mt are nice that time of year though.

    • @RobParker8
      @RobParker8 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No ticks!!!!
      My wife, Chris and I went backpacking last weekend and saw six bears. Someone asked “weren’t you scared?” I replied “No, I’m more afraid of ticks!”

    • @pnwbikepacking
      @pnwbikepacking  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The problem is I do a lot a fair amount of fishing on these trips, just no catching hahaha. Hope to get out for at least 1 more bikefishing trip before the end of the season!
