A bit of rain on the ride home from work today, but I didn't care, still took the long way...

Thanks, I intended to however finding time and internet connections was more difficult than I anticipated. Much of the adventure I attempted to ride more remote back roads and trails so the best alternative was to Facebook post camping locations and pictures when time and connections permitted. So to directly answer your question, no blog or write-up however more than happy to write or talk about the trip.

Bob pal, wish I live closer and can join y'all. Here's my Surly Trucker on a bike packing trip several years ago, with about 60 pounds of load. It performed flawlessly.
