How to Bikepack the Rockstar Trail: Day 0 Packing

If you have had your eyes set on completing the Rockstar Trail but a little unsure about what you are getting into then maybe this video can be of help. I started the Rockstar Trail in April of 2021 and finished it in four, albeit hard, days.
This video is a walkthrough of what I packed for the 4 day trip. This video was recorded after my trip so there is some useful insight in here.
I hope these videos help you become a Rockstar. Also, see below for Strava ride and also my vlog style videos that were my actual experience on the Rockstar Trail.

Great rundown, thanks! We are all gearheads so thanks for feeding the soul.

If you plan to do a good bit more bike packing, look high and low for a Specialized Burra bar bag frame. It has bar clamps and a lightweight aluminum frame and everything cinches down. It prevents your bar bag for doing the “monkey dance” all over the trail.

Thanks for the tips.

Can’t wait to trick out my revel ranger build and head out for an adventure

Cometeer is an option for travel coffee

Can you show how you're mounting your feed bag to your stem?

[@KerryWernervlog]

It's a double sided velcro strap around the stem, bar, and headtube (3 different).

@@KerryWernervlog thank you, trying to find a way to get it over my 35mm stem. Going to try a Rockgeist Spacelink.

I too consider myself a coffee aficionado. So, I highly recommend Jose’s organic coffee. I purchase online from Costco. Your welcome in advance.

Hardcore bikepackers just dump in a mouthful of dry instant coffee as they break down camp in the mornings. See Alice Drobna

[@KerryWernervlog]

Sounds unnecessary.
