Hookaville music fest

We arrived in Canal-Fulton OH on Wednesday May 22 and set up camp for Hookaville music fest at Clay's Park. After four days on the road we feel like we're starting to get used to riding. We set up camp on a hilltop and made a small fire pit since the weather got colder. I'm excited to see Rusted Root and Dragon Wagon will be here as well. Working on a Space Bag of wine and excited about the festival. We will be here till Monday then we're going to head down to Nelsonville for the music festival there.

overland

Stayed the night in Bellevue, OH. Replaced my tire, headed for Hookaville Music Fest. Storms on the horizon.

first day in the saddle

We left Ypsilanti today around 10am. We headed south and east on country roads. Sleeping tonight on the shore of lake Erie. About 60 miles total.

packing list

We're a week away from leaving for our bike trip. We plan to head south through Ohio to Nelsonville Music Fest. Then toward Red River Gorge in Kentucky for some climbing, and then perhaps a hiking trip in the Ozarks, from there we have no further plans as far as direction or destination. I've made a preliminary packing list for what I'll be carrying. Chaz will carry our tent, and Anna has her own tent. We plan on eating cheaply perhaps dumpster diving leftover foods and cooking some on the Jetboil. I have packed as lightly as I could with no spare clothing and only a few extras (like the disk golf ). Semi-official departure date is Sunday May 19th. Updates after that :)
