For reference, my current bike is a Trek FX-2. It's more of a sports bike but I think it will get the job done. What parts and accessories do I need to make it a worthy bikepacking bike? Will it need any special modifications?

Have you seen these giant helium balloons for hiking? They're maybe four feet in diameter, tie the balloon to your bike or pack, tie the bike or back to your wrist. Let the balloon carry the weight, and you just tow it along.

I don't know. I'm sure this will be no use to you. I just think it's cool, I saw yesterday, and I wanted to talk about it.

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.
