No, that poses several problems. My bags are attached to the bike so they would end up upside down, the ground would scuff my leather seat and grips, potentially knock brake levers out of alignment,...
I met several people who stake the wheels of their bike and add guylines to hold it up. Then pitch a tarp off the side and use the bike frame as the ridge for a leanto or a-frame. Works pretty well...
One of the great things that I've picked up recently is the Sub-24 Overnighter (S24O). Basically riding to work on my touring bike then heading out for one night and returning the next morning. I...
I set up the ENO hammock with ring buckles and some tubular webbing last night. I found two great trees in the park across the street with nice leafy coverage. It was starting to drizzle, but...
btourer's got the right ideas. The key to good bike touring is prioritizing your panniers, (saddlebag in my case). Just like with backpacking, you want the weight low and towards the middle. And like...
I got to the hammock forums through the bike touring forums and the bikelist.org groups. A tremendous resource for anyone interested in bike touring.
I've got a bunch of bike camping trips coming...
Hooch, I figured you were down here on our local Chattahoochee River.
Update on my ENO -- I swung by REI on the way home last night and picked up descender rings, biners, and some webbing. The...

I like the ring system better for versatility in pitching. The ENO hammock uses a heavy cord through a hem in the end of the fabric. Could I just untie that cord, insert the rings into the loop, then...
Thanks peanuts, you're close by -- watch out for me lounging at Stone Mountain if you're ever down there.
Do you have the regular Slap Straps or the Pros? I need to order a pair and am trying to...
Hi hammockers, I'd like to introduce myself and then ask a couple of questions. I'm in Georgia and live near Atlanta but travel all over the state & southeast for trips. Mostly hiking and bicycle...
