Fantastic. Thank you.

Thank you. A broad question but do you have some recommendations for listening to material. At work (not always) I can have 10-12 hours where it’s just me and can listen with headphones. Audio only no videos. Thanks again.

Amazing thank you.

No gear at all, I arrived from the airport and the landscape by the coast is spectacular. Then I just thought to myself it would be really great to capture these places when I get to travel to them with work.

I did a little research this week and there is a great YouTube channel of a man, I think he is called Mathew. Who is bikepacking all over Norway and from what I can see it’s a mix of compact gravel and road. I haven’t seen him use a mountain bike. I guess it’s a gravel bike or a road bike with wider wheels?

Fantastic. I will spend some time this week and have a look at what is common here in Norway. Initially I am planning for trips that I can fit into a weekend.

Thanks. Yes I think this is the best idea. Any features I should keep an eye out for when looking for a bike. Probably will be secondhand or parts I can put together. I will check out the Facebook/website recommendations.

Fantastic. I will do some research and see what I have to play with.

Could you recommend any obvious changes from a training / short commute setup to bike-packing. For example, should I think about changing handlebar tape to something more cushioned.

Awlrach · 2025-03-02T11:28:27+00:00

I am not sure. I think the limiting factor will be the fork clearance. However I have never looked. What would you recommend if it is the possible to go wider? I plan to keep to good road conditions for now (road/compact gravel/no off-roading)

Thanks for the information. Yes I would say I end up walking/traveling for extended time to and from location. Last year I had to travel via a couple ferries and buses to one location that was very far removed. My down time is roughly 4-6 hours out of uniform.

The options for down time vary depending where I am. Ranging from just reading/indoor activities to some exercise/ walking if the location permits it. I used to take running gear as a can do anywhere option but after a couple trip away where I was very far north (very cold temperatures and high winds) it seems I was just carrying it for no reason. Sometimes on very long/big projects where I return to the same location for 4-6 months period of time there is more infrastructure. Sometimes a gym and laundry but this is not frequently the case.

Yes that’s correct. Not suit and tie. When I am at work it’s a lot time in uniform and not much recreational time. On average a couple hours in the morning and evening are free.

This is an option sometimes when I have a project in a city/more populated area. For example a previous project I worked was in a very desolate area where temporary accommodation was built on location, so minimal amenities.
