3 reasons YOU need to go bikepacking
<vomits>
Hi David…. Your adventure was very enjoyable…. Thank you for sharing! Curious what month did you ride there!
Thanks for watching! I rode in November
Awesome…. Thanks for getting back to me!
Why do you run when do you train for bike? Why don´t you ride a bike instead?
@@janmikolas6582 hey Jan, I run because my city is not really safe to ride a bike in. I wouldn’t recommend running to anyone if your goal is to get fit for bikepacking
“Do shoulder press for bikepacking” - utter bollocks
Hi Ed, thanks for the comment. Having a strong upper body is absolutely helpful for the reason I cite in the video: pushing a 60-70lb bike up a mountain.
When you're leaning on your handlebars 10h a day it doesn't hurt to have a solid shoulder my friend. Just a lil bit of muscle everywhere will do you finee, dont needa be jacked.
the steepest parts are rocky because water and wind have removed the smaller material
Makes sense
It's sad there isn't more public land here in Texas :(
true that
I like the content but it does feel like you've glossed over the important part of bike packing which is the bike aspect. I think strength training a few times a week is a great supplement to the hours spent on the bike. Also the idea of riding a loaded bike vs an unloaded bike is far more similar than I think you mention - your speed may differ but you should be aiming for similar RPE and HR figures. The only benefit to loading the bike would be to get comfortable handling the heavy bike... maybe you could expand on that? Thanks David for the good video!
Hey Jonah, thanks for the reply. Yes I feel like the video could have spent more time on the bike aspect. The goal of this video was to get people thinking about ways to expand your fitness to meet the various demands of bikepacking. I think most people take for granted that they need to spend time riding before going on a big trip, so my hope was to educate on how to expand fitness beyond just riding. As far as riding loaded versus unloaded, yes if you keep the HR within the same zone there is no difference, though you have to be pedaling pretty hard to replicate climbing a hill with 40lbs of luggage on your bike.
@@dlambbikepackingisn't it handled by using a different gear?
Increasing resistance by using a lower gear? Yes that is definitely doable. Also riding singlespeed up hills might give you that same stimulus
Does this pre-suppose an existing level of bike / aerobic base? Or is riding training on top of this? Seems like unless you were already pretty bike fit, you might be able to lift your bike over all the obstacles, but struggle to ride up hills or spend more than a few hours in the saddle...
Hey there, appreciate the feedback. There are a few things I wish I would have done a better job of emphasizing in this video: 1. The most important thing you can do to prepare for a trip is ride your bike. Strength training is intended to be supplemental to whatever riding you are already doing. 2. The greatest benefit of strength training for bikepacking is how it impacts recovery. Most people will be able to lift their bikes over blowdowns. Doing that dozens of times per day will cause way less fatigue if you already have a solid base of strength and fitness.
As always a great video. As a late 50’s guy who hasn’t lifted in decades the notion of going back to the gym makes me sweat. I used to compete nationally in sprint canoe so I pretty much lived a portion of my teens and 20’s in the gym. However, once I left the gym, I was gone for good. I know I am going back, mostly to gain the strength benefits that every older person needs and can only get it from lifting.
Thanks Dave, I hope you make it back it back to the gym. Strength is so helpful for quality of life at all ages!

Like my setup 15 years ago when I got into bikepacking and going ultra light etc but has surge evolve since then
You're saying going ultralight matters less to you now? I'm curious to hear your opinion on that. My experience is that carrying extra weight is worth it until you get on rough singletrack or are dealing with hike a bike.
Interesting always good to see other people setups
What bottle cage mounts do you use to attach to your down tube and seat stays?
I use the Widefoot cargo mount on the down tube: widefoot.com/product/cargomount/?fbclid=IwY2xjawH8gkFleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHWx5V6WOcIIPGE1sM_JxytEjOpZ1XVFMEqCl9rjeTjifKu4W35DRzhGS9w_aem_ex3wANOjrIMKI6lFn6staw The ones on my seat stays are Bontrager: www.scheels.com/p/60184277858/?store=&cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=20940951515&cq_con=&cq_term=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_pos=&cq_plt=gp&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAqL28BhCrARIsACYJvkcTS9PfOUBomagyC2GjmECFs_EAVHJ8wmCNhcd0GSc1VW-HHG2shsQaAuxMEALw_wcB
@ thank you!
Good info. I will add a couple counter points. As you say a backpack is a personal choice and I will only use one to carry extra water as I find it bothersome. It raises the center of gravity and in warmer climates your back can get soaked with sweat. With regards to a seatpost, bag they again raise the center of gravity and the bike will feel very different compared to a rack and panniers. Also a seat back will not always work with a dropper. If you have a small frame chances are it will hit your rear wheel and the capacity of the seatbag also can effect useable dropper distance. As @johnpalmer3685 said depending on the pannier they can be just as secure, specifically the RD Microwave or the Mountain Laurel Designs Poco Panniers both use velcro and don't rattle like the Orliebs on rough roads. But as you say it's more weight and one may have a tendency to 'fill to the room available". But one may just need to carry more. I also feel with panniers I don't have to be as "strategic" with my packing when breaking camp as I do with a seat pack.
You said seat post bags are more secure... More secure than a rack? I'd disagree.
I agree that seatpost bags can be finicky, but ultimately they perform better on rough singletrack than a rack and panniers. Some people use a rack with a bag strapped to the top. In that case, no difference as far as bag security goes but I would still suggest a seatpack because it limits the amount of gear you can carry (which is a good thing) and removes the added weight of a rack.
What he should have said is the seatpost bag is less chance of failing like a rack bolts clips etc
@ Okay, I see what you mean, totally agree. I was thinking of a rack and nano panniers, like from Old Man Mountain type of thing. That set up feels more stable to me than a seatpost bag. But yes, touring panniers/rack is more likely to flop off and seems generally less stable.
Another fabulous watch 🎉
thanks for watching!
What camera and lens were you using? It must of been fully waterproof!
I used a sony a7iv and a sigma 28-70 f2.8! Didnt have any issues but did get a little fogged in certain areas
I have a Sony A7r3. Thoroughly enjoyed watching 👍
What camera strap are you using?
@@johnrichardson7785 peak design clamp that fits on my backpack strap!
Fantastic film 🚲⛺👌👍
@@tonypaddler thanks for watching Tony
@dlambbikepacking It was my pleasure 🙂
Really well done! Great imagery of a place I have only driven by en route to somewhere else. When I think of St. Helen's I think of what it was and not the beautiful park it is today. Perhaps its a road trip for the future. As for beer, well, beer tastes good after a ride or any physical endeavour, even ice climbing or ski touring when the cold would leave you wanting other options. If you ever do figure out why its so good after exercise let me know!
Thanks Dave, it's a beautiful place and this is one of my favorite overnight rides. I think you're right about beer tasting better after any physical endeavor and that's one thing I love about doing these adventures
How the fuck
21,000 miles, dude biked across water then
That would be correct 😂
Nope my friend, all of the 21452 miles were on land and without a phone, GPS or maps. No ground support either just pure instincts, determination and leg power! The water was somewhat easier and required a ferry or a flight which is rather self evident! Deep Breaths A big hug Eric 🚴🏻
Посмотрите на него! Какой он страшний!!! Шо
A great video with excellent story telling. You really do a great job of capturing what its like in NE Scotland and the Flow Country. I took a road route from Inverness towards Lairg, Tongue and Thurso(plus Orkney as an extension) but I think the gravel/bog route you took is even prettier. Now I know I need to go back a different way! Hopefully you also saw some of the Pictish standing stones in the region. They are amazing! Once again, awesome video, I enjoyed every minute of it!
thanks for watching and sharing the supportive words Dave! My only gripe with this route is i didn't see quite as many Pictish monuments as I hoped for. Everything else about it was amazing
@@dlambbikepacking Scotland has a lot to offer, maybe one of the best part is that you don't get to see it all in one trip? The best Pictish standing stones I saw were east of the line I think you took, Nigg, Hilton of Shadbolt(SE of Bonar Bridge). Too far out of your way. There would have been a good one near Forres I think. Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures!
Thanks for posting this. I live close to this route and have yet to do it. After watching your video, and especially the parts with all the dogs, I think I’ll pass on the adventure. I quit road riding because of all the cars and I think I’m just about to the point where gravel riding in rural areas with tons of unleashed and unfenced dogs has become so unbearable that I’m going to quit that, too. Ugh and sigh
Sorry to hear that, I wont lie the dogs were a tiny bit scary in certain moments, but did not ruin the experience for me. Really unfortunate that people can keep their dogs behind a fence
@@dlambbikepacking Your video, photography, and story were great!
@@gearjunkie88 thank you!
I can totally relate to your coyote experience on the first night. My first night on a bikepacking trip north of Flagstaff had both coyotes and Elk screaming all night. If you’ve never heard an elk before I don’t recommend your first time be at midnight in a tent in the middle of nowhere. 😂
Elk make some crazy bugle noise right? I've heard people say it's terrifying

Great vid David, what animals are there out there that would be bad if they were chasing you? Thanks, An aussie.
Thank you, allegedly cougars but I didn’t see any
@@dlambbikepacking Id be shit scared doing a trip outdoors in America, cougars, bears, coyotes.
@@g_mack Despite what I say in this vid, coyotes are actually harmless to humans> Cougars and bears definitely are scary but the real risks are vehicles.
no cooking supplies? or just cold food?
just whatever I can carry, no stove
Thanks for the great content!
Thank you for watching!
I see someone stopped by Rogue Panda before their trip. How’d all their gear hold up? Sick looking trip! I’ll be adding this one to my list. Luckily I live in the Flagstaff so the logistics should be a lot easier than yours lol
Yes I did, the Rogue Panda items I have are -handlebar mount -frame bag -ripsey seat bag + wolf tooth valais They were all fantastic. I think the ripsey bag is great if you need a dropper friendly seat bag. Thanks for watching and send me pics if you do the trip!
@ Great to hear their gear was solid! Will do!
what a beautiful video man! great editing and music choice Hey, what is that thing you are using for the suspension fork as suspension guard?
@@dhananjaydeshmukh817 thank you! Appreciate you watching. That is just a piece of plastic that came with the bike to guard the fork.
Good video David.
Thank you!
match made in heaven
Great video but I hate the constant shots of you going away from or moving towards the camera. Like you set up a tripod and went back to go forwards again. I just cant take it seriously man. Greay vid otherwise
I appreciate the feedback honestly. Would love for people to be more candid about what they like/dont like because it helps me get better
Great Video by the way!!
Did you get you lens fix? It happened to me and I sent it to a company in Albuquerque NM. Fixed it perfectly.
Hi Dave, thanks for watching. Yes i got the lens fixed! It took sigma about a month and a half but they fixed it for $250
@@dlambbikepacking that’s awesome. You seem to have made everything a silver lining in your video. I thought that added to a wonderful video.

I used to live there (cottonwood, working in Sedona) and did way too little riding back then. Thanks for this blitz down memory lane. Now I have to plan my next trip there, and find a way to bring my bike with

thx bro
I camped in the shelter at the tunnel and although, nice there are marmots that live under it and make noise all night.
I wish I had done that too I just didnt time it right.
I like your attitude. And don't worry, when you're in your 50s you can still ride your bike wherever you'd like to go.
thanks Danny, appreciate you

@@scotlandmyhome7484 Thank you for watching! Ceremony is a song I associate with many good memories on my bike so it was special to include it here.
Excellent video!
Thank you!
For Brits interested in coming to the US, what trails would you recommend? Looking for something a bit different to UK riding and about the same length as the Pictish trail (and preferably no bears lol)
Great question! What type of riding do you like? Paved, dirt roads or singletrack? What’s your experience level bikepacking?
Great ride and video! I did it myself a couple of years ago but it took me twice as long because I couldn't seem to get started no earlier than 10:30 each morning! A lot of that terrain is no joke.
Thanks Scott, this one is definitely challenging and not a ride I would recommend for a first time bikepacker, but still very rewarding.
Wow, what an epic adventure through Northern Arizona! The mix of landscapes, from the red rocks of Sedona to the forests near Flagstaff, looked absolutely stunning. It’s amazing how much variety you packed into 240 miles. The singletrack sections seemed like a real treat, and the route through Sedona must have been a highlight! This ride definitely showcases why Arizona is such a bikepacking gem 🚴♂🏜
@@TalesFromAbroad-SJ that really is the highlight of this route.. the variety of landscapes!
what's the best time of the year to do that loop.?
@@theduckrc211v4 spring and fall!
Hi David great job, I am sorry about your camera, could you tell me what is the best season to do the route that you did?
Hi Ricardo thank you for watching and I appreciate that! Here is what the official guidance on this route says about when to do it: Spring and fall are the best times to ride the Coconino Loop. In the spring, you need to wait for the snow to melt in the higher elevations around Flagstaff. You also don’t want to go too late in the summer as Sedona can be really hot.
smells like a 100 full porta potty's that has been sitting in the hot sun fermenting for weeks on end, you can smell slab city 5 miles down wind before you enter it
Hahaha no kidding
excellent video!
Thank you!
