Three Rigs of The Straddle and Paddle

Andrew, Mitch, and Neil just got back from a four-day ride on the Straddle and Paddle, a beautiful 180-mile bikepacking route in Northern Minnesota that starts on the shores of Lake Superior, loops up to the Boundary Waters, and eventually meanders back down to the big lake via forest service roads, double-track dirt roads, and bike paths. In this video, Andrew, Mitch, and Neil share the rigs and gear they used on the route. This video was supported by 1UP USA.
