Episode 18: Buffalo vs The Catskill Bikepacking Route (The Aftermath)

We went, we saw, some of us conquered and some of us were conquered... Welcome to the aftermath interview of our attempt of the Catskill Bikepacking Route. Please enjoy our stories of triumph and tribulation. From their website: “This self supported bikepacking route is not a race.  There is no entry fee, no starting gun, and no cheering finish line.  The 250+ mile route circumnavigates the Catskill mountains while climbing over 25,000 vertical feet.  On this route you will find all types of terrain: smooth paved road, flowing singletrack descents and gnarly hike-a-bike.  For the fit and experienced bikepacker, this route is intended to be completed in about 3 days. Additional time would be needed for those who plan to travel more slowly, or at a touring pace.” (It's definitely a race).Thanks for tuning in!Intro/Outro: Sonorous Gale: Let Your Darkness Shine. Sonorous Gale was one of my favorite Buffalo bands to watch and play with. They were a two piece consisting of Aaron Weese on bass and Steve Kerfien on drums (two of my longest Buffalo friends). Two dudes, big sound. This album and more are available at: https://sonorousgale.bandcamp.com/album/twos-a-crowdCommercial Audio by Jack Toft off an original Campus Commercial from 2012.
