  • Without an agenda, time becomes irrelevant. When it comes to bikepacking, this is the perfect mindset to have. Void of all expectations and obligations, Jackie Paaso and Stan Jorgensen set off on a three-day, 90-mile mission on the Arizona Trail, embracing the moment and abiding only by the rhythm of mother nature.

    What an amazing adventure. Camera work and editing was top notch. Thank God that rock didn't smash into the lens at 5:44... that scared my inner filmmaker for a moment

    Nice ! I haven’t done bicycle trips like this yet only motorcycle trips with my wife. You are correct that time just stops and you never want it to be over. Someday maybe we will try a bicycle version ! Thanks for the vid and the edit was awesome well done.

    Looks awesome. Recently did some helibiking in Africa. And that was just amazing, while we didn't get to experience the different regions like you did, we got to experience areas where nobody has ridden before. We were stuck to cattle and wild tracks left by buck and had to either ride that or find out own way. Was insane and ended up in a lot of broken chains or tyres. But I would do it again.

    How were yall able to fit all your gear on the fullies? Do you have a packing list you could share? I love bikepacking but it always ends up being pretty uncomfortable on my rigid bike

    First time to Arizona, didn't know what to expect? Flats! The Goathead is nature's perfect tire puncturing implement and they grow by the billions in the Southwest. I use belted tires, Slime tubes and Mr. Tuffys and rarely get flats.

    That's some amazing looking trails and great cinematography. Got one question though, what is that thing you're trying to blow up @5:19 ?? Can't believe anyone would be running tubes in this day and age, especially when you know you'll be encountering sharp rocks and cactus.

    This says Arizona Trail but has Sedona in it... Is this the new AZT1000? I think it reroutes through Sedona now and along the 101 instead of the 87 through the Mazatzals. I think this solidified that SoBo is the way to go for me. Bombing down Snowbowl up in Flagstaff at 9,000ft and then getting to Sedona and getting to bomb that? Yes please. I like techy climbing but I like descending more ;P Great video and photography!

    • @p2lpark
      @p2lpark 3 роки тому

      The actual AZT doesnt have Sedona but I think Shillingsworth or John added the BCT and Sedona to the AZ1000 route

    Lovely video... but bikepacking in Arizona with tubes? Why???

  • @joedesalme8096
    @joedesalme8096 4 роки тому +1

    Misleading title. "90-mile mission on the Arizona Trail"
    The AZT does not go through Sedona or Cottonwood. The Flagstaff to Mormon lake section is in fact a small part of the AZT. Once they left Mormon lake and headed to Sedona, they were off the AZT. There's no straight line to Sedona from Mormon lake either (as indicated on their map at 0:43) . It was shot and edited extremely well, but why mislead people?

      All of these types of vignettes are sponsored, otherwise they wouldn't get made. It is the business of Mountain Bike. They did a great job.
