bananas are gross.
They're probably one of just a small handful of things I can't choke down, along with cantaloupe, and tbd.
The only reason I mentioned them is because I know they're a staple in many parts of the world.
In a few weeks I hope to link up with a friend who is riding with a group across country for a few days of bicycle camping. Bikepacking. The few small motocamping excursions I've done have gone well, and always leave me thirsty for more.

I did food drops. Dehydrated meals and attempted long stretches between resupplies. THat sucked. More stops and fresher food is the way to go. (still using drops).
I also did the long trail, which might be a better fit for you. 4 weeks ish. I went light 25lb pack, running shoes, more frequent stops. That is the way to go.
I have done a lot of cool trips. Mule supported summit of Pico Duarte (10k ft) in the D.R., surf trips etc. But my last big adventure was 7 days on dirtbikes in Guatemala and it left me wanting more!
Haha, yeah my thot gets lonely and I can't fit her in my overnight bag
Cilantro hate I can get behind. Smells like blood to me. Fastest way to ruin some good Mexican.
Nice. Also fun. Never done any long trips. Was planning a ride to eastern white mountains last year before everything on my bike started to disintegrate. Decided to wait until I get a new bike. Riding on the road sucks though, it's miserable on a MTB and chews up tires, but I'd rather be on trails 90% of the time and do smaller miles. Will probably have to drive to get anywhere worth more than a day trip!
Awesome stuff. My standard overnight bag is well under 20lb now so I can see 25lb lasting maybe one week with minimal supplies. Definitely far off on my radar right now. I guess if I had cell service I could still work though..

Cilantro is the best.

Cilantro, rosemary, and pine nuts taste like disinfectant soap to me. That's not good. I hear there's a genetic marker for people that do/do not like cilantro.

You are part of the 1/4 of the population that don't have the ability to process the flavors of cilantro properly. Congrats.

Bananas : good
Motorcamping/ADV touring : good

Or we're the only ones who actually can process it and you're all eating the blood lettuce
Either way, what do we win???
