  • Loving these bike pack episodes

    Ep 151 Sometimes things don’t go the way we planned.

    Lots of great stuff here but this episode really spoke to me. I use to hike a lot until my knee just got to painful to do descents. I got into bike packing and discovered outdoor vitals. The loftek jacket won me over, then the sleeping bag then the altitude hoody now I am all in getting my whole layering system through outdoor. I ride a drop bar mtb with 2.6” tires and have a dual suspension gravel bike and for my road centric I have a all r... more

  • Always entertaining, and I learn something new.

    Always a good listen, very informative and entertaining for sure. Their most recent pod cast about Hiking 20 miles a day was loaded with great tips on how to hike further. For the experienced hikers I’m sure there are a few things they can take that will help add a few extra miles onto their daily hike. And for the beginner and intermediate hikers this is loaded with great information. I will be definitely adding some of Outdoor Vitals strategies to go extra miles on my next hike.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP 203 - The Difference Shoes ACTUALLY Make On The Trail
Q: How did your shoe choices evolve during the event and what impact did that have on performance?
I started with my usual Speedgoat 6s, briefly switched to the Stinson 7 mid-race for better cushioning on downhill sections, and then returned to the Speedgoats after observing slower uphill performance and increased effort with the new shoe, which restored speed and cadence and helped me finish strong.
EP 203 - The Difference Shoes ACTUALLY Make On The Trail
Q: What motivated you to enter Spike Camp with a friend and what were your goals?
The goal was to push training and test equipment with a partner who has a strong ultrarunning background, aiming to complete as many laps as possible while maintaining pace with a capable partner; ultimately, the aim was to see how gear choices, particularly shoe weight and cushioning, influenced performance.
EP 201 - Cirq Trekking Pole Tent: Product Deep Dive
Q: Why not use 100% polyester fabric instead of nylon with polyester yarns?
Polyester alone is not as strong as nylon; by combining polyester yarns with nylon, they gain reduced stretch and moisture-related sag while preserving tear strength and keeping weight down.
EP 201 - Cirq Trekking Pole Tent: Product Deep Dive
Q: What inspired the development of this new tent.
The team wanted to improve overall livability, ease of setup, and stormworthiness in trekking-pole tents, addressing common pain points like condensation, space constraints, and the fiddly setup process, while maintaining light weight.
EP 198: Ask OV 9 - Ultralight For Performance, Not To Chase A Number...
Q: Any info on how to know when to replace a piece of gear versus getting it professionally cleaned or doing it yourself?
Replace gear when it can no longer perform its intended function; cleaning is often sufficient unless there's a full failure.
