Nah, I wasn't serious. Well, not that serious.
I mean, I'd love for it to not look like it does (I only bought the red one because it was £2500 cheaper than the black one) now but unless you have magic +50W paint I'd rather spend the money on aero testing or EPO. The clear coat is peeling in places though...If you know what Xavier did to his rider's bike with the textured paint though, do tell :)

My understanding of the term 'bikepacking' is loading stuff onto a bike without panniers and rack.
Doesn't matter if it's for touring or racing it's just a personal luggage choice dictated by rider's requirements.
Try racing the Tour Divide with panniers. I could race TABR with panniers but it'd be silly. I could tour with bikepacking kit, which is less silly, especially if it's the ride that's the interesting bit but yeah if you are doing the stopping to smell the flowers thing, panniers probably make more sense. I got rid of my panniers though. I still have a rack if anyone wants it?
Yeah, no showers in current office so if there's slightest chance of rain I stay home but I had big boss meeting so had to go in.
