Did a two day solo trip out to Banff, where I had the chance to cycle though grasslands and mountains. This was my first over-night bike packing trip that I did in preperation for a three week trip
I had coming up (and the vlog for that one will be out soon too)!
you can find me on instagram @ jennakoenig
Thanks for watching :)

very nice bike ride. This is the essence of bikepacking: you can see and feel each detail of the trip; you suffer; you don't stop; you get there and suddenly all the pain turns out into great memories and a sense of achievement that launchs you immediately on planning the next one. Thanks for sharing!!

Believe me I know your pain! Good for you for choosing highway 1, I totally agree with 1A being too windy and who can ride on a 1" shoulder with a 3 inch drop to the gravel....lol...no thanks!! Oh how I miss being on the road! Much love! and excited to watch more vids! Thanks!

Super awesome ride! Beautiful country too! That part of Canada is so pretty, and what a cozy town there in Canmore, love it. I took an amazing 300 km bike ride over 3 days when I was studying abroad in Japan going from Chiba to Gunma to visit an onsen during Golden Week and it was such a highlight of my whole time there. I've wanted to do it again every since and only now, 6 years later, am I getting into biking again and planning to do some cross country trips. Very inspiring!
@michealwhite1091

Excellent job! Well Done! I need to get back home and ride that route, it looks gorgeous! I have friends and family in Calgary and oddly enough Canmore and Banff. I live in Miami now, and tried a 4 day bike packing trip, but had to bail midway thru the second day. I had tube failures. My first tube had the valve core come out, and wouldn't stay back in. Every time I pumped up the tyre, it would shoot back out like a bullet. My second spare tube had the wrong valve length, and I couldn't pump it up, as it never really came out of the rims. That was my fault. I had gotten new wheels, and didn't check that the tubes I had would fit the new rims. Sigh. Will try again in a few months, Maybe Christmas break?

I was riding through Noca Scotia one day, stopped at a little bridge on a quiet side road. It had rained and the sun was just coming out and the heat of the sun was making the metal bridge railings pop with the sound of the river flowing below. There were wild cherries, blueberries and raspberries asking the backs that I ate. There was a smell in the air, that smell of the rain evaporating from the road mixed. And of course the sight of it all. As I'm standing there soaking it all in through all my sense a car drove past and I'm that moment I knew that the driver was missing all of it, all he got was the sight and barely that. There is no better way to explore a country than by bicycle.
