>>1774671all the youtubers like to shill apidura, havent had one of their bags yet, but thinking about it. The cheap stuff I bought from REI held up fine for the GAP/C&O trail when I did it last year and probably just going to use most of the bags again. Just look for towns to stop at like you normally would for a long weekend ride. If youre going something like colorado trail then grab a backpacking stove and some just add water meals as well as one of those water filtration things that all the hikers get too.
Gravel doesnt really feel that different other than a little more friction/less rolling that road biking, unless again you're on something like the colorado trail then thats more mountain biking.
>as a bonus, am i correct in thinking that i could stick my laptop into a pannier bag and commute to work on a gravel bike? presumably i might want a spare set of wheels to easily swap between city tyres and gravel tyres?yeah dont see why not
