047 - Stoke the fire! A conversation about bike packing with Campfire Cycling (Josh Lipton)
Show Notes

Our hosts are joined by guest Josh Lipton, founder of Campfire Cycling, a brick & mortar and online shop that specializes in bikepacking and bicycle touring.

Lipton shares his expertise and the trio dive deep into specific bikes, components, bike setup, and unique gear used in bike packing and touring (all of which are available for sale on campfirecycling.com).

Beyond the technical aspects, this episode  explores the transformative power of bikepacking. Lipton discusses the deep connection with nature that comes with  a bikepacking journey and how it can be a catalyst for self-discovery.

Stay tuned for a future episode, where we plan to chat with Toby Smith, Campfire Cycling Shop Manager, to learn about their brick-and-mortar operation and how they foster community engagement.
