For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.

Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

This topic is meant to be a low threshold possibility for all kinds of discussion. It is not meant to keep anybody from creating a new topic, the idea is that it may enable some discussion that would otherwise not happen at all.

Hey, thanks for your input. I also feel like cross posting would be a win-win. Some nice cycling content for [email protected] and some attention for the touring / bikepacking stuff, maybe gives people ideas who haven't thought about it.

When i joined lemmy in the midsts of last years tour, i started posting to [email protected] before there was any traffic here and i felt very welcome. Really like the vibe in "your" community. It was the most active cycling comm and i think it had the most subscribers too. It still seems the most active, but somehow [email protected] seems to have much more subscribers now (It says 1.88K on lemmy world). Strange how that goes.

[email protected] will always have a place in my heart, i had a really great time when i found it! ❤️
