Are these not the same people who didn't appear to want to be associated with bikepacking not long ago?

We are leaders not followers....
I was reading the latest issue of the cycling UK the other day and it seemed to be all bikepacking!

They seem to have recovered from my linking a post on their forum to Dave Barter's report on the Spanish C2C trip where he ripped the piss out of the CTC and their pannier, beards and Ron Hill trackster fetish. :grin:

Actually a short, little “mïcro adventure” (FFS!)

Hardly seems worth it for something so inconsequential

Thank you Taylor. It was not coming up with a hashtag back in 2012 that slowed progress of this phenomenon (did #'s even exist back then?).

My original intention was to get people out on a little adventure using our expensive equipment a bit like the Audax crowd with the 200km once a month challenge. I think four of us completed that year, Taylor, Chew, Scotroutes and myself.

I have to say I am quietly proud when I am out and about and people just mention they are doing bivvy a month. That is enough recognition for me. Of course without this forum it would not have taken off here either. Not all t'internet is bad.
