Bikepacking Catalina Island

I've lived nearly my whole life in California and had never set foot on Catalina Island. Before moving out of the state I planned a bike trip across the island to stay at a camp site I've always wanted to stay at Parsons Landing. After exploring the island, I'm more than certain that riding bikes across the island is the best way to explore the island.

Definitely a good trip to the Catalina Island, it is much nicer to see a place from a bicycle ride point of view it is up close and more interesting. Very good video, looking forward to your new adventures in Utah. Cheers.

[@TrentSiggard]

It's an old man mountain rack! Also I wrote a trip guide, it should be linked in the description of the video!

I love the Video, thank you for That! Can you please Share your Experiences with the fjallraven top tube bag? Is it waterproof? Did you use any wax? Would you buy it again?

[@TrentSiggard]

No clue on it being waterproof, but it's been my FAVORITE top tube bag. I've been eagerly awaiting them to come back in stock.

Hey Trent, what did you install on the front axel to mount your elkhorn front rack?? Robert Axel? If so, can you tell me what size? I'm a beginner with the same bike and I just want to confirm with someone. Thank you if you have time.

What did you use on the old man mountain rack to mount the bottles like that?

[@TrentSiggard]

Nut, bolt, washer

[@spawnrcandbikes]

is there any electric charging areas at parsons?

[@TrentSiggard]

Not by the campsite, but there are in two hardbors! I found an outlet by the washing machines/showers and in a planter!
