Rambling Riff-Raff

Getting started this week with our bike builds. We picked up two Stooge MK7s to turn into our bikepacking bikes. Super stoked to get them put together and on the road!

Lunch break in Ithaca, New York. The way the world is falling apart, sushi from Wegmans just isn’t enough anymore. The moves regarding the EPA are devastating and disappointing. At least Rain got to scream at some humans through the window!

What is everyone thinking about the most recent news?

We really got away with one regarding the weather. Mid-March is always pretty volatile, so happy we escaped (most of) the cold and rain.

26 people, with everyone returned safe and sound! Next one in less than 2 weeks.

What is our plan? Great question

What happens when two clueless people (and one very patient dog) decide to bikepack full time with no prior experience? A lot of bad decisions, questionable gear choices, and sheer chaos. But hey, that’s the plan! Read about our completely unhinged plan for adventure here ⬇️

Ignoring the news and getting out to walk Furry Overlord on the sunny days.

Anyone else getting to that point?

A dirt road walk with our four- legged overlord. I see a lot of walking in our future.
What are your favorite walks?
Rain wants to know!

I’m so excited to share this project of mine! 🚲 ❤️

Super grateful to the generous support from @bikemn.bsky.social, @cyclehoop.bsky.social & the Lyndale Neighborhood Association to make this idea a reality.

Coco can’t walk as far as she use to, now she rides in style 💗

I have always been in love with foggy mornings. This place in New Hampshire was always breathtaking, no matter what season.

The Great Purge How Did We End Up with So Much Stuff?

Just posted a new Substack post all about purging your life of your possessions.
Has anyone ever had to purge? Whether for a big move or life change?

It’s been a long road to get where we are today. Many places, endless adventures, and our furry companion. This is our journey so far!
