In this episode of the Bikepack Adventures Podcast, I take listeners through my outing on the Canadian Shield XL, a nearly 1200km bikepacking route in Quebec, Canada, which takes riders on an adventure across the Laurentian Mountains, crossing through a mix of ski resorts, provincial parks, national parks, fauna reserves. Mixing in as much single-track mountain biking as possible, this route contains about 14000 metres of elevation gain according to RideWithGPS, but in reality, it is probably closer to 18000 metres. Throughout this episode I dive into my packing and bike set up, my daily distances while riding, challenges I came across along the way, and also talked about planned and unplanned changes I made to the route along the way.Want to watch the podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4bILRHpCOww Enjoying the podcast?
