General Discussion / Snoring repels bears, but does it attract other critters?

« on: March 15, 2024, 02:01:22 pm »

I found this post in a very old thread about bears:

"I think people who snore have a rare advantage when sleeping in a tent at night!"

Would snoring attract other animals, like racoons or a very hungry fox?

(Will be bikepacking this spring.)

Thanks!

Gear Talk / Can you fit a fender under a Topeak front rack?

« on: February 13, 2024, 09:00:48 am »

Can you fit a fender under a Topeak front rack?  A sales rep told me the TetraRack M1 front rack for the QuickTrack system is not designed to fit over a fender, but "you might be able to sneak one in." 

Has anyone out there done this? 

My bike is the REI Co-op CTY 1.1, and my fenders are the Bontrager DNCS for 700c.

Thanks!
