    Sorry I missed this video Andy. I didn't know you're into bike packing. I did that a bunch this summer all over the western US. That scenery is amazing. Really glad to see Stacy too.

      Bike stuff is great, so simple but it can be as rad as you make it. We used to do a lot of camping trips with motorcycles and light weight setups but the bicycles just feel like you are earning it and appreciating every mile. Cheers!

    Love the setup. Back when I was tougher, I used to bikepack on a nearly identical setup, swapping a Straggler for a Cross Check, but otherwise similar down to a Sackville (nee Ron's Bags, RIP) bag on the front and a SOL bivvy sack. Even did the whole Disco route like this, from Edmonds to La Push and back.

      Hell yeah! A nice simple setup has always worked well for me over the years bicycling, hiking or moto trips. Tools are usually my first priority ha ha! Cheers man 👍

    Awesome vid Andy. Beautiful riding and funny to see the giant volcom sticker on that dumpster 😂 So glad Stacy's there too. We have never met but we have so much in common.

    Bummer about the Acty, but glad you are all good. Really enjoyed watching you and your brother messing around in the forest in the Kei’s.
    Surly is a cool bike brand, got 2 of my own now, Karate Monkey and a Bridge Club.

      I’ve wanted a Karate Monkey for a long time but that Bridge Club seems like a great do it all bike. The Acty should be making an appearance soon 👍

    • @OlympicOverland
      @OlympicOverland  4 месяца назад +1

      Hi, the front bag is from Ron’s Bikes and is the Fabio’s Chest. It’s waxed canvas and is a size small but is actually pretty big, it fits my 48cm bars great. Definitely the best built and thought out bag that I’ve ever owned. It stays on my bike daily 👍
