Check out @micah356 ‘s amazing Kona Sutra review on the front page of the site. https://www.ridingfeelsgood.com/7500km-across-the-trans-oceania-aboard-the-kona-sutra-ltd/ Pretty dialled setup for what looks like a once in a lifetime bikepacking adventure.

Here are some of the cage options I’ll be rocking on various bikes during adventures this summer.
(l-r) Anything Cage, Two Fish with velcro attachment, King Cage TI with tool pouch, Anything Cage HD, Blackburn Cargo, King Cage TII’ve got all sorts of washboard straps and other mounting solutions I’ll share when I get a sec.
I also bought these hose clamps with bosses built in for anything I need to secure better. Not a very elegant solution but used by many and works. With three of these, I should be able to comfortably secure an Anything or Cargo cage.
Marc, what is the link to the Ebay seller with these. Think this could be work on my Monstercross. .
I’ve been spending a lot of time mapping various routes I’d like to try this spring, summer and fall. The hardest part is fitting together obvious routes and keeping things as off-road as possible. I also want to leave right from my door.
Just put together this 580km loop that I think would be absolutely amazing. Lots of killer sections, enough that it would not be doable on a CX bike. I plan to do a few of the legs this spring to suss it out. Think this is a really cool mix of varied terrain with some really beautiful sections. Be a 3-4 night trip depending on where you wanted to stay and how far you wanted to push it each day.

Why not push the extra 15 km up to Owen Sound and then take the complete Tom Thomson Trail to the Georgian Trail from OS to Meaford.
That would take you by my house and Coffin Ridge Winery 🙂

Also my buddy Wayne would love to do that ride. He’s an animal. Based in TO. Does a lot of these types of rides.
