Bikes: 1961 Ideor, 1966 Perfekt 3 Speed AB Hub, 1994 Bridgestone MB-6, 2006 Airnimal Joey, 2009 Thorn Sherpa, 2013 Thorn Nomad MkII, 2015 VO Pass Hunter, 2017 Lynskey Backroad, 2017 Raleigh Gran Prix, 1980s Bianchi Mixte on a trainer. Others are now gone.

I have some Ti cooking pots that I got used for a good price, they are very light, largely because they are so thin. And a Ti spoon and fork that were on sale when I went to the store to buy another fork after breaking my lexan camping fork. My next backpacking trip will include those Ti items for weight savings. I did buy a double wall Ti mug that has good insulating properties, it is pretty nice for hot liquids in cool weather, for example the coffee does not get cold too quick and I can hold the mug without gloves.

Bike touring, I usually bring stainless pots instead of the titanium ones, I do not think the weight is as critical when I have wheels. Kitchen utensils is the limit of my Titanium stuff, I have no plans to buy any bike components made of Titanium.

On the bike trip when I took this photo, I carried a Ti pot instead of stainless because there were going to be a lot of hills on this trip.
