I’d be interested in an overview of your garden in the background 🤘

Hell yeah, looks like a really well thought out lightweight kit. You've got some great pro tips,
- I like the leash protip with the bivy, so clutch. I finished the Oregon Timber Trail this year and there was a ton of gear that people lost along the way, a leash would have saved them!
- Extra ziplocks for carrying food along the way... so many times I wished I packed an extra.
- Gaiters! You recommended these to me on AZT. Took them on the OTT and loved having them.

I think I may have to try out a pair of those socks... I'll be watching your dot and rooting for you Dylan! Good luck!!

Awesome, Dylan. Have fun and good luck on your CT adventure

[philipaddyman]

Good luck. You've thought it through and deserve success!

[rehview]

Really good run down. Could you post a post-race review of your set-up/kit list?

[RafaSplanB]

It would be awesome if you can make a video on your tarp set up. Good luck on your race.
Cheers!

Nice setup! Have you considered maybe a rat t tourniquet in case of a gnarly crash? Maybe something like that with a quick clot sponge would be overkill for just a bike race?

I also have a 2023 Epic Evo and been debating whether to get a new epic 8 or epic 8 evo, there pros and cons to that. However, because I love my bike I decided to start purchasing pretty much same stuff you have. Have you thought about the new epic 8 or epic 8 evo?

[tomkrusic]

maybe I missed it, what's your gearing for the bike? good vid as always.

[Sturmer]

nice. you think you will win? if not, then I would take a normal saddle bag... take a bit more stuff, or have room for stuff you pick up on the way.

This will make you feel good... Your loaded bike is lighter than mine?!#$ 🙄
