What an event!! We had very type of weather imaginable: From scorching sun to snow and freezing wind and rain, this ride threw it all at us, and my kit had to handle it. Recorded just two days after finishing, my body was still recovering—my lips were wrecked, I couldn’t even smile properly! But I break down what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d change after tackling this brutal, self-supported adventure. Although this was my first event I'd had big influence from my Dad who is an avid bikepacker and friends who have done very well in these events! Missing: I took a tooth brush and tooth paste too! Let me know what you think—would you pack differently? 🚴‍♂️💨
