    Interesting that the Red Shift grips were mounted horizontal (at 6:30 into video). The ergonomic position for these is have them at about 45 degrees. The wrist are in a more natural (ergonomic) position that way. I'll be looking to see if get rotated before the ride gets going.

    I am not in JP league. I recently did the European Divide Trail in Eastern Europe all on dirt roads in dust and mud ( lots of mud ) it’s 3000km ( so not USA distances ) from Baltic to the Adriatic. My key kit was electronic shift on my bike. Regardless of the weather it shifted regardless of the mud ( once I could move the bike ) it operated. Fantastic options and I set it up like JP’s but without the extra brake leavers ( I think that’s a great idea on steep
    Declines ) best of luck to JP his stuff is inspiring and I am glad Dirty Teeth is back online very much too.

      not an oversight... a choice... he has plenty of dynamo wheels and lights at his disposal if he wanted to go that route... he wasn't carrying a sleep kit and plan was to stay in hotels pretty much every night... plenty of charging opportunities between that and all the burger stops :) ride on!

      The Tour Divide uses Adventure Cycling Association's Great Divide Mountain Bike Route but has developed some alternates through the years and starts in Banff.
      The route actually starts in Jasper. 370 miles north of Banff.
      One of the goals of the film is to explain some of this confusion and highlight ACA.
