Going Long and Hard.

I have the first generation Fly UL1 ( non-bikepack ) for a long time and am looking forward to using the Copper Spur UL1 bikepack I just purchased ( on sale now )

The oldest version of fly had numerous annoyances. Needs MANY stakes to have proper interior volume, the entrance involves crawling over your pillow and the pole elastic gave up the ghost after many years.

I also have the mesh 3-wire Bivy and I prefer that when it's going to be clear. Side or top entry so it's really great to get in/out of when your legs are toast. I might use that one for May's ride.

I used the CS UL1 BP on the Florida Coast to Coast trip and it worked great. I just got the footprint for my longer trip mostly to cover the vestibule. I found it was a little annoying to deal with getting in and out without somewhere clean and dry to kneel.

And I don’t have a broken pelvis this time

Not sure that really slowed you down much if I recall.

I mean, I still won.

And here’s the end of week 1.

Gary is on my team so we have a huge overall lead.

Finishing up this little 3-day Adventure. Rainy and cold all day Saturday. By the time I got off the Sussex Branch I just b-lined it home. 3x200k days spread pretty even. Slowest day was Saturday because the McDade was wet and slidey. I also did the hike-a-bike section instead of riding 209 or whatever.

I have a frame I’m in the process of repairing and then I’m going to use that and flip this frameset. I tried to sell it complete but no one is interested in a Ti gravel bike these days.
