Apidura Expedition Series Bikepacking Gear Review

Apidura is one of the top bikepacking bag makers and has led the way in ultralight, rackless packing systems. They produce minimalist gear for multi-month bike tours, self-supported cross country races, as well as for a weekend get-away. As bikepacking and adventure riding continues to grow we have seen an increasing number of bag brands enter the market, pushing Apidura to stay on top of their game.

The Three Bikepacking Gems of Southern California

I feel fortunate to have had an early winter full of bikepacking in Southern California where I was riding my Salsa Cutthroat equipped with Apidura’s Expedition line of bikepacking bags. I’m looking back to those trips with more fondness than usual. And now, in this liminal space, where we inhabit at socially acceptable distances from each other, I wanted to offer my thoughts on the three bike packing gems of Southern California - Santa Catalina Island, Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, and the formidable Stagecoach 400.
