Those are going to be 2 long days.  With the fall we’ve had, you can expect those woods to be a real mess too.  I’d suggest a straight bandit overnighted in the woodsy spot of your choice.  Bring your orange garments.

Older Km, had canti mounts, which are long gone, with Soma Fork.
has:
Sram 1x11 GX drivetrain
XT cranks with newer BB (last summer), shoddy rattle can paint job...aka street cred
Jones loop bars (butted al version)
Chinese carbon regular riser bars
Raceface al Seatpost
WTB ti railed rocket saddle
Ritchey headset (last summer)
Surly Tuggnut tensioners
Ergon grips
SLX brakes
no name rotors (I think)
Stans arch mk3 wheels
DTSwiss xm551/xt hubs B+ wheels
Velocity blunt SS/xt hubs 29" wheels (older gen hoops, fairly heavy)

new/unused Ikon plus, and WTB trailblazer 2.8
the B+ tires mounted on the wheels are pretty spent.
on the Stans wheels which are mounted up, there's an ikon out back, and a ranger 3.0 up front.
If you read too much chatter here, that front tire is too wide for that arch mk3 rim. At 185, and 12psi, I've never had it burp, and I'm a reasonably aggressive rider.

$1000 for everything. Plus actual shipping/pp fees where necessary, but prefer local sale.
bike is located in southeastern mass.

The adirondack trail race claims to be pretty technical, but I haven't ridden it yet.

I just have the lust for one.  I may and up owning one by the time I'm able to put together a run at the TD.

Hey folks, I have the fever.  The fever only an epic journey can cure. 
I'll be dipping my toes into the water in 2016 with ragbrai (I'm actually not bikepacking, but "vacationing") and a 50mile xc race (as my premier event). 
I've raced various motorcycle disciplines since 09ish and will be making a regular return to bicycle racing this upcoming seasonS.  I dabbled a little this year, but haven't devoted a full season of bicycle racing since 2003. 
I have a lot to learn, but I'm an ambitious little bugger, and also being a former bmx kid. 
Cheers.
