At long last, back in a bike ...

It all started late last winter, one morning it just become obvious to me that i had got to get back to my beloved sport. Months later, as I dusted off my road bike, I envisioned bikepacking around, no full kit, just me, a comfty bike and a starry night.

Today, I did my first Off/On road metric Century in more than 5 years. (Of course, I bonked on the last Kms )

My touring steed, all 90 dollars of it, the best of my parts bin and a full weekend of frame painting.

So you wanna cross the Canyons in style ???

A while back I came in contact with Alex Lockhart, just your normal guy who decided to take a 5,000 mile bike trip and while he was at it, cross Copper Canyon like a real man...

He went down to Batopilas, back up to Creel and ended up crossing to Baja via the Guaymas ferry.

If you have some time and wanna read an exceptional journey take a look at The Vagaries of the Road, an honest and direct take on a solo trip.
