Bikepack Adventures Podcast Chris Panasky

In the 4th episode of Unpacking Bikepacking I dive into the some of the common issues that gravel bike riders have while taking on various bikepacking adventures, and how to make that gravel bike into the perfect rig for bikepacking. Throughout the episode I look into various things, such as suspension, handlebars, fenders, tire setup, and more.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I'm sharing the conversation I had with Aaron Prasad a little while ago. Unfortunately, it took a bit of time to get it put out as things got crazy for a short while. Now that things are a bit more normal, I happy to release this conversation and share Aaron's journey as a plant-based athlete, lover of Colombia and all things bikepacking. What initially began as a small cycling adventure has grown into a desire to learn more about the country, continued exploration and the desire to challenge not only the mind, but also the body. In January of 2024, Aaron decided that he would embark on an adventure dubbed the 25x25 project. 2500km with 25,000m of elevation gain riding a huge loop through Colombia. As things got going it slowly morphed into what is now closer to 40x40. Tune in to hear Aaron's story.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I record a Ridecast on my recent participation in the 200km Wendigo Fatbike Ultra, which took place on February 24th, 2024. Throughout the episode I talk my bike, setup, preparation and of course, the event itself. Finishing with a time of 18h 39m, this event pushed my limits for a variety of reasons.

In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I'm excited to share with you a different type of adventurer. Namely, because she is so young, yet has accomplished some pretty epic adventures. When I first reached out to Scarlet and her dad Flint, they were immediately interested in sharing their journey on the podcast. Between Flint's job as a travelling musician and getting out on bike tours, Scarlet has been travelling and sleeping rough since she was a little baby. After graduating from tow-behind bikes, Scarlett started putting more and more miles into each adventure, having ridden the C&O canal, done a multi-week tour in the UK, and culminated the epicness of her adventures by riding the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route at the age of 13, beginning in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and ending in New Mexico, USA. Since the early days of Scarlett's bike adventures, this passion for two wheels continues to grow. I hope you enjoy this conversation as I go back and forth between father and daughter to try and catch the essence of their journey.

I this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I super excited to have had the opportunity to sit down with Kurt Refsnider, a professional ultra-endurance/backcountry mountain bike legend, record holder, route developer, advocate, cycling coach, geologist and also the co-founder and route director of Bikepacking Roots. If it's something bike related, there is a good chance Kurt has done it or is planning to do it. Some of Kurt's many cycling career highlights include but are not limited to: Winning the ITI, 8 wins and/or records on the AZT 300, 2 wins/records on the AZT 750, winning the Colorado Trail Race, winning the Tour Divide and finishing it 3 times, setting the FKT on the Kokopelli Trail 2 times, and setting the yet to be beaten FKT on the Grand Loop. With countless other adventures and races to his name, Kurt also became the first person to complete the Continental Divide Trail south bound. Kurt has recently finished writing a guidebook with all the important information you might want to know if you decide to take on the daunting Iditarod Trail. In today's episode, Kurt and I take a deep dive into touring this legendary route, going beyond just the gear that might be important to have, but also the preparation, logistics and mindset that you might need to account for. I hope you enjoy the episode.
