This video is sponsored by HOVERAir. We've been using the HOVERAir X1 PROMAX 8K self-flying camera for the past few months and cannot recommend it enough. We also recommend choosing a bundle that includes the HOVERAir beacon (like the Cycling Bundle) because it pairs with the X1 PROMAX to provide a real time preview and allows you to adjust the flight path for super unique, awesome shots. https://sydandmacky.com/hover (use code "SYDANDMACKY" for $15 off)

Just two days after our first race of the season, we decided to try a different kind of challenge: bikepacking. So we headed to Las Cruces, New Mexico to ride the north part of the Monumental Loop, a 130-mile route from Las Cruces to Hatch and back, through the Chihuahuan desert and the Organ Mountain-Desert Peaks National Monument.

But instead of loading our bikes down with camping gear and days worth of food, we’ll be traveling light, buying what we need along the way and sleeping in a real bed. And while not carrying all the gear might make it sound like we’re doing this on easy mode, it also means we have no choice but to make it to our destination before dark each night. Plus, we've never done anything like this before, so we really don't know what to expect. So, here goes nothing. Join us for two days on the Monumental Loop.
