Hi guys,
New to the forum and bikepacking, looking to start doing a few overnighters and long weekends in a couple of months, so I'm starting to get some gear (have to go one paycheck at a time
).
I live in Albuquerque, so trips will be in the Central/Northern NM area.
Sleeping bag:
Looking at getting the Big Agnes Crater (15 Degree Down w/ pad). Appears often on SAC for around 130, and including the pad it's a pretty light bag. Would look into getting a summer bag further down the road.
Tent:
Eureka Spitfire Solo - Seems like a very decent tent for the price. Couldn't really find a bivy without condensation problems within this price range, so figure this would be a nice one to take with on colder/rainy trips.
Backpack:
Osprey Talon 22 - Great reviews all over including here, bladder friendly, good size.
Other gear:
Thinking of a Epic Designs or similar saddle post bag, and a handle bar strap system for tent/sleeping bag.
How does this sound? Any alternatives I should be looking at for any of these?
TIA!
