Everything is strapped down and the only loose part is the passenger! You
can account for the occasional capsize by picking bags that are submersible
- think ortlieb bags. I've only run the lower fork of the American River
and paddled up in Folsom Lake, so its pretty calm by most river
What a fun adventure, I've done a lot of paddling and biking, but never
together.

This seems cool and all, but every time I see photos of folks packrafting
with their bikes and wheels all precariously strapped to the top of the
raft, I just can't help from thinking how much it would suck to capsize
with all your bike gear. Maybe I'm just too used to the waterways I've

river (Mulberry River, AR). The take out was on our way upriver so it was
convenient to do this. One or two of us would ride back to the vehicle(s)
and drive back for the boats. Second time we
Very cool, Collin! I've been contemplating getting a packraft for a few
