That trip, I did solo and had no agenda. I rode each day until I found a place I wanted to stop. It was a ‘clear your head’ type of trip. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move the base camp when you feel the need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel good getting stuff on the calendar, but it is the near term stuff that get's me antsy. Nice weather today, but various commitments get in the way. It's a lot of "grab time" when you can for me, and sometimes, I miss the chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn’t have those for @petitepedal big adventure. Did your stuff get wet on the adventure? Did they make it hard to access your stuff. So many questions.

Made me think of you. Those softball fields were right next to the Monarch Levee Trail which goes over the Missouri River on a bridge bike path that connects to the Katy. We often ride from there when we visit my son and his family who live in Chesterfield. Had I known that you were over in Du Quoin, Illinois recently, I might have visited. It's not all that far from where I live. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a fair amount of rain on that trip. And the covers worked very well. I had no wet gear. I didn’t have any issues accessing what I needed to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
