“The Meanest Link“ A Bikepacking Expedition. Self propelled by bike for 9 days and over 400 km. This is Algonquin Provincial Park and the surrounding area. In 2004, a route was dreamed up to connect the 4 Algonquin Outfitters stores throughout the park – Hunstville, Brent, Opeongo, and Oxtongue. That summer, The Meanest Link was officially invented, and is a canoe route created to honour the memory of Bill Swift Sr., one of the founders of Algonquin Outfitters. It linked the lakes, rivers, and portages between the 4 Algonquin Outfitters stores, and has traditionally been done by canoe…until now. Self propelled by bike for nearly 9 days and 400 km, I would overlay and stitch together a land route consisting of crown land, atv trails, logging roads, abandoned railways, rural backroads and highways to achieve the same general path throughout and around Algonquin, connecting the original stores together into one bikepacking expedition. This version of the Meanest Link will be an expedition
