Thailand Bikepacking on a Brompton
Thailand is a wonderful and offers plenty of opportunities for cyclists. I divided this tour in two parts: the first one is a challenging Mae Hong Son Loop getting closer to the North West border with Birmania while on the second part after visiting Chiang Mai I moved to Chiang Rai and cycling South towards Phayao and Phrae.Jeremy Mendelson Brompton podcast
I made an appearance on this week's episode of Pedalshift with Tim Mooney, which reminded me I hadn't shared this episode from my winter bike overnight in February on my Brompton folding bike. It was perhaps more successful than Tim's most recent ride on the C&O Trail, albeit shorter, a few degrees warmer and solo (sans dog). Notice how there was no snow in Denver but about four feet at my apartment just 75 miles west (and 4,000 feet higher) in Breckenridge.

This is a detailed video explanation on how to install a rear rack on your Brompton. While touring on a Brompton in my experience this is one of the parts that is vulnerable especially when transporting the bike by airplane.

Video highlights from the Western Express Route in Utah and Colorado completed on a Brompton folder bike. The 1350 kilometres included a detour into Zion National Park. Some of the other wonderful parks crossed included Bryce Canyon, Red Canyon, Escalante, Petrified Forest, Capital Reef and Canyonland.
