expand your horizons

I lose sight of how insular this world of bicycling can be. We all have our little corners of intense focus, I guess. A rep came into the shop yesterday and we were talking about our ridings, and he had no idea that there was such a thing as "bikepacking". I was surprised, but I shouldn't have been- he reps road items and his interest is deep but specific. I told him a little about things, but he glazed over so I stopped.

I can't see your eyes glaze over, so I continue. You prolly already follow this stuff since you must share some of my intense, uh, focus...but if not, HOLY ADVENTURE:

Epic Eric, and that's no lie.

Man, those guys are doing it and doing it and doing it well.
