The first few steps

Filming for The Path began this past weekend with a quick shakedown overnighter in the Colorado Rockies. We learned a lot about the pace of riding while filming, how much camera equipment can reasonably be taken, and thought long and hard about what gear we need to bring along for 5 weeks of riding and traveling abroad.

Not a bad place to wake up in the morning, aside from the thin air at 11,000'. In a few weeks, we'll probably be longing for that much oxygen while far higher in Nepal.

After unpacking and repacking all my gear for a third time, waffling on what bike to bring, and swapping out most of the components after settling on my Spearfish, I think I might just be set for our departure for Scotland tomorrow morning.
