45 miles. chico to black butte lake
first time loading up a road bike, bit less serious of a trip just having fun bit of a vacation.
gps took us through private farm land and the owner confronted us saying we were on his land then talked about politics and the upcoming election then let us finish through his land, rather bizarre pretty funny
get out have fun and remember you dont need a multi thousand dollar bike and setup i used a 200$ used bike and about 400$ of budget gear

not sure if this is bikepacking or touring it was rural roads good bit of gravel and we camped in a campground so bit different from what im used to 🤷♂️
Thanks for sharing. Looks like a good adventure in really nice landscape! Gets me Fernweh.
Anything you wish you had or hadn’t bought for the bike? I have a very similar model and am looking at doing 60 miles a day for four days (with 2 rest days), so would be interested to hear more about your trip
A “budget” Big Agnes! 😂 trip looks awesome tho
Daaamn you live at the liquor store?? jk
Seriously though, way to have fun on the cheap! Looks like a good time. Love those lake shots.
