Pit Stops Matter: Why Weight and Aerodynamics Are (mostly) Irrelevant on Flattish Bike Touring (Bikepacking) Routes Hiking, backpacking, bikepacking, paddling and climbing in New York's Adirondacks, Catskills, Vermont, New Hampshire, the greater Northeast and beyond

Cycling is a sport built on perceptions and misconceptions. Marginal gains that mean marginally nothing. Does weight and aerodynamics matter for bikepacking and bike touring?

Bikepacking the Erie Canal (Empire State Trail) and New York's Finger Lakes Region.

If anyone on here has any suggestions I'd love to hear them!

The Erie Canal isn't the only bikepacking in the Capital Region. There are ample gravel roads, state forest and state parks to create a fun trip within shouting distance of the state capital.

Jazzo La muratella

An jazzo is a traditional limestone enclosure used for sheep farming, typical of the Apulian landscape in southern Italy.

Last summer's Erie Canal Trail ride was so great, we're getting the band back together for GAP trail and C&O (Pittsburgh to Washington, DC).

I bought a new gravel rig (steel frame) over the winter, so I'm extra excited for the adventure.

Summer bikepacking in the Black River Wild Forest - Mckeever, NY A very hot summer weekend in the Black River Wild Forest. This was supposed to be a scouting trip but the heat Friday turned into even hotter Saturday. When you're sweating at the lean-to at camp in the shade, it's not a good day to ride. And yeah, I fully acknowledge I'm soft in the heat. I don't mind when it's minus 10F but 90F, I want to cry. Besides that, it's not fair or safe for my dog to crank in the heat. So we opted to do a much less invovled 17mi total weekend and basically just a bike camping trip vs a bikepacking trip. Sleeping outside, having a campfire, and just being away from the world is good enough sometimes. In fact, sometimes it's exactly what you need. *interesting note on the big foam pad up front. I forgot my Z-rest for the dog, so I cut out one of the base pads/e-pads from under the memory foam mattress in the van. My dog wasn't impressed and wouldn't use it. i woke up in the middle of the night sleeping on the floor of the lean-to with the dog on my airpad.

Bikepacking - Rensselaer County, NY Bikepacking through Grafton Lakes State Park, Rensselaer County, New York. For more on bikepacking, cycling, wilderness adventures in New York, the Northeast or beyond Mountain Visions ------- Panasonic GF2, Lumix 14mm f/2.5

One of the cool things about NY's Capital Region is the underrated, under the radar, sneaky good access to the outdoors. Cycling may be the most underrated activity.
