My name is Edmundas and I am a bikepacker who mostly explores the United Kingdom but sometimes wanders abroad too.
It started fairly randomly with me walking past a bike shop. I decided to pop inside spontaneously and left the shop with my first proper bike. A hardtail. It was back in 2007, and many things have changed since then, but I still remember the dark cherry colour of the frame and the pure joy I felt that day.
My bike rides became longer over time. They gradually shifted into overnight trips, and my passion for cycling has never abandoned me.
Here you will find some tips about bikepacking, camping and equipment. There are also descriptions of my main adventures. The tips are mostly oriented to people just starting and may seem basic if you are a more advanced adventurer. However, based on constantly repeating questions on social media, there is still a demand for this sort of information.
The style and format of different trip descriptions may vary as they were written over the years, and my approach changed over time. I went through the filming stage of my trips, but in time, I discovered that running around with my GoPro was distracting me, so that's on hold now, and I am trying to write more.
