By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Raptor 14L Backpack
The Raptor 14L Backpack by Osprey is a must-have for mountain bike enthusiasts seeking adventure on singletrack trails. Designed with innovative storage solutions, this backpack is perfect for riders looking to escape the city and immerse themselves in the beauty of nature.
One of the standout features of this backpack is the 3-liter Hydraulics reservoir, providing ample hydration during intense rides in hot and demanding environments, such as desert landscapes or dense forests.
The BioStretch harness ensures a comfortable and contoured fit, thanks to its mesh-covered foam that wraps around your shoulders and hips. The Atilon foam embedded into the frame of the backpack offers additional support while allowing freedom of movement on your bike.
In terms of storage options, the Raptor 14 doesn't disappoint. Its stretch-mesh front compartment is spacious enough to hold spare layers, a riding jacket, packed lunch, and other bulky items. The zippered hip belt pockets provide easy access to riding snacks, trail nutrition, and other smaller essentials you may need on the go.
An interesting feature of this backpack is the removable roll-top tool compartment, which allows for quick and easy repairs even when you're far away from civilization.
Some additional noteworthy features include a blinking light attachment for enhanced visibility and safety, as well as Osprey's ingenious LidLock helmet carrier.
