Honestly, im so short it’s highly likely I could use the elephant foot as a full size sleeping bag 😂 <b>*I just went and looked it up. I absolutely could do that!!! Haha*</b>

Hey Darwin, I'm sooo happy that you've been posting more about bike touring/packing lately. Your videos are very helpful for this bike tourist as I'm currently riding from Boulder, CO to Charlotte, NC! Keep em coming!

Good luck on the Tour Divide. I did it last year and it remains the most profound outdoor experience of my life. Ride hard!

The elephant foot is a great idea (I've never heard of it!) it could even be used sitting around the camp, legs always seem to be cold!!!😊😊😊

I have that trowel sheath, and it's great. But I don't put stakes in the main pocket. I keep my tp, soap, and hand sanitizer in there so it's an all in one poop kit.
