In a couple of weeks I will be starting a northbound Bike trip in New Mexico on the CDT. It has been a bit of a journey figuring out how to make all that heavy bike gear work with my Lightweight gear. And what could a backpacking company do for me. Here's what I am using from Gossamer Gear on a bike packing journey.
First there is one of GGs newest packs. An 8 oz daypack shaped like my favorite book bag in college. It sports a pocket for a water reservoir, Side mesh packets deep enough for water bottles, Cool shoulder straps, and by cool I mean well ventilated and cool in styling. It has both sternum straps and another clip down lower, these keep the pack in place even in that awkward biking position. This is will carry my water and food while I am riding.

Gossamer Gear also sells a ground cloth that weighs less than half a homemede Tyvek tarp. We will use the large size under our Big Agnes Fly Creek UL3.

We are biking New Mexico which means getting water from stock tanks. So we will be using the Sawyer water filtration system.
When the water is clear we will use Aqua Mira
There is even more cool stuff on their website; but of course my absolute favorite Gossamer Gear Products
