Crazy to think in five days I will be on the road. My adventure is about to be very real very soon. Last night I loaded the bike with my bags and took a four-mile test ride around the neighborhood.
One guy I passed stopped me to ask if I was going bikepacking. I definitely stood out.
Everything felt good. Heavy, but good. I was cautious since the handling is affected by all the weight but slow is okay since I'm not going to be racing to the finish. I will take the next few days to repack my bags to balance the weight and pick up a few odds and ends. I am sure I'll learn as I go.
I still can't believe I'm doing this. I'm really excited.
