For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.

Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

This topic is meant to be a low threshold possibility for all kinds of discussion. It is not meant to keep anybody from creating a new topic, the idea is that it may enable some discussion that would otherwise not happen at all.

I think that the regularity of these posts is ok. Also I looked at the other bikepacking community and it looks dead.

I mod c/homebrewing and I don't post that much there - now it is at about 1post/week, it doesn't feel dead and has good engagement. So I wouldn't be afraid to stop posting that much and became more regular user (depends on the bot/troll activity here, on sopuli it is ok).

Thanks. There is no bot / troll activity here, all my mod actions have been stickying/ unstickying posts. I will make anothrr quarterly post then next month. I just don't like having the mod status, haha.
