Phil, to be clear, bike and gear and food and water weigh 75 pounds, I’ve 
hauled 90+ pounds of groceries mostly downhill before, for only 5 miles. I 
wouldn’t want to tour with close to that much load, and there’s no reason to. 
Grin.

Andrew, no secret. Joby mini tripod, iPhone, timer app. That’s it!

Patrick,

This was a good morning read before heading into work. I've found fixed 
gear climbing easier than not-fixed, but I've never done it with 75lb of 
gear. I love that you took a lot of photos as usual!

Thanks for sharing; I enjoyed reading about your adventure and the shadow

Wow!! What a trip!
I also love the herbal and floral scents when riding. Also the smells of 
fireplaces and people cooking. But the herbal/florals make riding just so 
joyful and intoxicating.

I am consistently amazed by your documented rides Patrick.  You seem to 
have a very understanding wife.  Lucky man that you are.

Looks like it was a great time. Thanks for sharing! It really does look 
dangerously dry out there. I wonder how long I could go with the "holding 
water" trick.
