Bike packing presents a special (and fun) challenge - fitting everything you need for survival on a bike and in this case, carrying it over 380+ miles of sand, boulders, and glacial runoff. I thought long and hard, reworking many iterations of my kit, carefully choosing each piece of the puzzle… and I can safely say the best smelling item was this epic little bar of soap from drsquatch that accompanied me through some pretty insane conditions. If you want to see the full gear breakdown you can find it on my YouTube channel!

Colours of the sky 🌌 The aurora borealis are caused by solar wind interacting with the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. The different colours are caused by the different gases in our atmosphere: oxygen creates greens while nitrogen creates purples, blues and pinks. #EarthCapture by vincentledvina . . . . #bbcearth #northernlights #aurora #auroraborealis #sky #nightphotography #landscape #landscapephotography #beautifullandscape #nationalpark #outdoors #wildoutdoors #naturephotography #nature #naturelovers #earth #earthlovers
