Touring with the Electric Powered Cycle Camper- Video – Ottawa to Fitzroy 2.0

Ottawa to Fitzroy- the second tour with the electric powered Cycle Camper was even better than the first. Click here to check out the video diary.

Touring with the Cycle Camper
On the Road with the Electric Powered Cycle Camper

This trip was in cool temperatures with cloud cover. A contrast from the full sun, hot conditions of the maiden journey. We took a different route also. We traveled along the Old Carp Road to the village of Carp. The journey along the Carp Escarpment was spectacular.

I arrived to the campsite with about 25% remaining on the battery. And to add some challenge to the weekend, I forgot to bring the battery charger so I was entirely dependent on the solar panel for the return trip. This was ok though because I wanted to test out driving without using the hub motor. I’m happy to report that the Electric powered cycle camper trailer rides well under pedal power alone. I used the power occasionally to get a break and on up hill stints. With only solar to charge the battery, I managed to complete the entire 50 KM ride back to Ottawa. I never ran out of power.

I also added a rechargeable electric fan to the cabin of the camper for this over-nighter. It worked nicely to keep the cabin cool and refreshed throughout the night.

Similar to the maiden journey I carried my cloths and essential in the Commuter PanPack attached to the rear rack of my bike. Shout out again to Mark B. who cycled up with all of his gear and tent packed in the World Tour PanPack. Great work on the camera too.

Overall an outstanding weekend tour, I cant wait for the next one!

Camping with the Cycle Camper – Overnighter

On the Road with the Cycle Camper

Here are some photos from our maiden adventure with the cycle camper. We went on a 50 KM ride from Ottawa to Fitzroy Provincial Park in the sun and 35 degree C temps. The electric hub motor came in very handy for the uphill stints and with the head wind. The battery lasted the entire trip and had plenty remaining after arriving to the campsite. The solar panel kept it charged up very well along the way due to the full sun conditions.

At the campsite with our cycle camper trailer, setting up the camper was super easy. Found a relatively level spot and lowered each of the 4 legs. Making fine height adjustments with the leveling bolts as required. Next I opened the lid of the cargo carrier and fixed the hinges in the open position. I added 2 props on each end to remove any flex in the hinge. Then pulled out the end fly’s and pegged them down. Finally I inserted the pole into the awning and snapped it to the lid of the cargo carrier. The awning comes with chords that loop into the same pegs for the end fly’s so its really quick. Plenty of time to sit down and enjoy a well deserved cold beverage before dinner.

I carried the Commuter PanPack on the rear rack of my bike. I packed my cloths in the commuter panpack. All other gear was stored in the cargo space below the carrier. This included, chairs, food, cooking equipment, emergency kit, tool kit and most importantly cold drinks.

I woke up refreshed from a very comfortable sleep, despite the massive downpour and thunderstorm that rolled in overnight. All in all an excellent weekend camping!

Shout out to Mark B. ! Mark made the trip without the electric motor assist. He also arrived sporting a cool lightweight tent that was quick to set up and take down.
