I am afraid to disappoint you, but I froze af last night, my sleeping bag proven too shitty. My runny nose and sinuses got worse and I've got a suspicious cough. So I called it quits and took a ride back home.
Tips and conclusions of the trip:
> don't ignore frost alerts and don't use shitty summer bags
> need a bivy to protect a bag from condensation
> 2 rides 130k each is NOT a good idea
> pay attention to your bike fit, too long rich is bad for your shoulders
> get bike-specific multi-tools
> riding through suburbs sucks and should be avoided
> bikepacking you will need a shower (I am thinking just ride into civilazed campgrounds for it, afaik nobody locks those showers.
> don't forget sunscreen (I did)
> if ATVs are allowed on the trail - avoid it, their wheels loosen gravel and make it barely passable for a bike
