ITINERARY

* Please do get in touch for bespoke dates but note we're sold out until September 2021

FRIDAY EVENING

We can arrange accommodation for you on the Friday evening if that's helpful as we'll be starting at 9am tomorrow.

SATURDAY - DAY 1 BIKEPACKING ADVENTURE

We'll meet at 9am (but you can arrive from 8am if you're a keen bean) for a quick intro to the weekend ahead and a chance to meet the group with plenty of time for any questions.

By 10am we'll be getting you set up on your bike checking all your bags and helmet before heading out to hit the trails at 10.30am.

After a good few hours in the saddle we'll take you to one of our favourite spots to stop for a spot of lunch and coffee/tea.

Suitably fuelled, we'll then head back out heading for the hills passing rolling hills and heading deep into God's Country before stopping to make camp at around 7pm. We'll teach you everything you need to know about campcraft - how and where to camp, cooking, and other top tips w've learned over the years.

Bellies filled we'll hit the hay and spend the night under the stars.

SUNDAY - DAY 2 BIKEPACKING ADVENTURE

To ensure we make the most of the day we'll be up to watch the sunrise before breaky at 7am.

By 9am we'll be all packed up and ready to start our ride.

You'll have the next few hours to really get into the swing of bikepacking as we pedal our favourite routes away from the crowds.

Next up, you guessed it, lunch at another cafe or pub depending on where we get to.

We've then got a few more hours riding until we get back to HQ at around 4pm ready to head home at 5pm

Can I bring my own bike?

So long as it's not a penny farthing yes...but seriously, as long as it's in good working order and suitable for mountain biking then yes.

FOOD & ACCOMMODATION

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
