Cuyahoga Valley?

Nice. Grew up nearby. Rode in there long before it was the national park. Good memories exploring on my bike. Nice setup.

Yinkgo, you have a good stout set of wheels there, 40 spokers I reckon. Bruge in photos certainly looks pretty. Im sure it was a fun trip.

Bob+

This is just a bob ibex with the swingarm I made out of a troll fork. I also put in airshock on so it's more adjustable for the load I'm towing.

I've also added the trailer break

Bikes: Modified Catrike Trail (26" rear)

This is my setup for my first overnight.
It was woefully topheavy, live and learn.

Its now sold and I'm getting a 2013 catrike trail with Utah trikes wheel extenders to equip a 26" rear. My wrists suffer horribly on an upright, my sights light up pretty quick on a trike after that 6 hours of hell

Will be equipped with rear panniers and a BOB trailer for a fully self supported tour.

Yeah it was a great bike, I just wish I had found this forum well before I went on that trip. The rack was a seatpost rack, worst purchase ever, stabilized with a conveniently bent steel bar i found lying around, screw clamped to the rack, taped like madness to the frame. Theres a pair of collapsible baskets on the rack that you can't see too well. All of it held together with bungies.
Bent the kickstand out of shape with the weight.
I did have a couple gatorade bottles strapped to the cages on the back. The red thing you see just below the seat is a bottle holster with a strap to sling it over your shoulder, nice for walks and hiking, (which we did, summited a mountain), and fits a gator bottle nicely, another on the other side.
A real hack job for my first time out but it held up.
