Can we get a bike packing thread? Don't know where it would go. The powers that be can decide.

If there is any interest post up. It could be a place were we plan trips, talk gear, discuss routes, mileage, campsites, Just curious if anyone here would be down with a thread for that type of fun and recreation?
 
I'm all for creating its own sub forum.

Does it need topics under it? Or just threads? Can always add and reorg as needed.

@Norm ?
 
I have backpacked, I have bikepacking bags, I have a great bike to bikepack with...but I never bikepacked.

Might need to do this in the Spring finally.
I'm in the same boat, also have a bad back and neck. Any suggestions on options sleeping outside? I avoid camping for these reasons as I can't function the day after when in a pad and tent. Is bike packing with daily hotel stops really bike packing? Thinking to ride to DC pretty much every year for cherry blossoms.
 
Thanks y'all. I think it would be a great addition to the site. Wherever you guys think it would be appropriate. Happy New Year.

Just saw it. LOVE IT. Thanks my dudes'

All done - let me know if sub topics are appropriate (ie equipment, routes, stories) or we just see how it goes...

Technically people would probably call that bike touring...I see no issues at all especially with your physical ailments!
 
Planning a BTB to Belleplain Fatpack ride soon. Maybe early March. Could extend it to Cape Henlopen DE via ferry

Ride reports. I used to post all my motorcycle tour ride reports on Sport-Touring. org/net and adv rider. They were shall I say, legendary. LOL
