Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

How naïve. Burn everything pictured and replace with #daypacking equipment ASAP if you ever want to be taken seriously by the gravel community.

I encountered some premium SFAB this morning

Perhaps I should unfollow this thread again...

Get out now. Save yourself before it's too late

It’s going for a picnic and it doesn’t need to be codified

@Chaley picnic blanket is 🔥🔥🔥

Where is this thread heading? Bikepacking, daypacking, oddly shaped luggage!
I feel as if I'm trapped in an endless cycle of signification with no escape -
other than popping down the bikeshop and blowing 2K!

Where is this thread heading?

I don't know, but I'd avoid getting in its way...

The only way to drink coffee when picnicing or touring is Turkish.

Can you get these in titanium?

In many ways a charcoal fired coffee is very #daypacking but I prefer the ease of a gas burner. For my Aeropress I don’t have to grind as fine either.

It's around a 16km round trip to my favourite coffeeshop. Does that count as a decent daypacking ride?

Can include some actual gravel on the way there

Maybe take a folding chair to sit outside

Well I cheat and use gas. And I make it in a mug. But ita inspired. Might as well just rub the grinds into my gums. You need it after sleeping like shit on a blow up pile of crap.

it's meant for pool lounging not sleeping on

This is good for actual camping. Compact and nice crema. Still need a titanium kettle. Perhaps the next generation of e-Gravel will come equipped with an inverter to allow Nespresso drinkers to experience the thrills of daypacking.

Ah I have one of these – too heavy for bikepacking, and its quite a lot of effort for each shot, but the results are v good

16km each way!!!! You'll need a bar AND frame pack for that

The problem isn't the temperature dropping, it's that once you keep coffee warm for an hour, it all starts to taste the same. There's no way you can tell the difference between even like, an anaerobic colombian and a washed process ethiopian once all the volatile compounds have broken down due to the high heat, so what's the point.

Only 16km total

I'm sure I can fit the required 16 energy gels in my pockets

Better make it 17 gels, just in case

Who am I kidding

Better fill my panniers with sugar

Exactly.

You're wandering dangerously close to the golf club there

Hey old-timers, Briping is where it's at now for the outdoor hipster.

No mention of amphetamines. How am I supposed to stay awake long enough to drink my coffee?
