Everyone is different and everyone has a preference on what bike they take with them on their trips. When it comes to my bike I love my Pinnacle Arkose X Di2 Gravel bike. It can go anywhere (with the right tyres on) and it can handle all of my bags easily. A nice saddle, a good bike fit, and I'm comforatble for many a mile. Share your ride with us. Let's see those pictures.

You might not have been on your first trip yet and if that's the case you should have a look at 'Bikepacking - The Basics' in the Blog area. However, if you have adventured out on your bike for a bikepacking trip then share the story of how it went, what you learned, the good bits, the bad bits, and the reason you went bikepacking in the first place. We all started somewhere...

Hello and thanks for stopping by the forum. Feel free to browse & post anything cycling related whether it be bikepacking, commuting, mountain biking, road riding etc. Two wheeled talk is always welcome.

The majority of cyclists that I have met are a fairly happy, chatty, helpful bunch. There's the odd one that never waves back but I smile and wave anyway. Jump in here, say hello to some like minded people, and strike up some cycling related conversation.

Nothing you haven't seen on every other forum ever: Be polite - try and keep the language nice and clean. Not everyone will agree on things and that is ok. Debate and discuss but don't argue. Help each other out. Have the answer to that question? Let them know.
