This will be my second of two bikepacking weekends on my new custom titanium Sanitas Root Hardtail.

My friend Brian and I will be following Bikepacking.com’s Upper Valley Trail Mix" which they say “ is a challenging and rewarding two-to-three-day mountain bike route that explores the pastoral beauty of Vermont's Upper Valley region. It crams an impressive variety of terrain into a single weekend of riding, traversing the area’s steep hills and valleys on an assortment of trails and quiet gravel roads.

Check back here for my notes from the trial.
