***If you would like to join this ride but it is cost prohibitive to do so or you need to borrow gear to make it happen, please let us know.

We’ll be leaving Campfire Cycling at around 11AM for a 23 mile ride up the loop (Paved bike path) with bathrooms as well as water fountains and options for supplies to Catalina State Park. We’ll be staying at a group campground with room for 20 tents.

On our Community Events/Rides we follow our Campfire Code of Conduct. We strive to create a positive and supportive environment where everyone feels welcome and heard. We don’t assume anyone’s abilities based on outwards appearance. We take responsibility for our actions and words. We respect the land, it’s original stewards and leave no trace.

While this is a beginner oriented bikepacking trip, everyone is welcome. I’m sure all of the newbies will appreciate having experienced campers along for the ride.  It’s a great opportunity to do a shake down run with new gear or a new to you setup.

If this is your first bikepacking trip, we are here to help. If you like advise on gear need or want any other advice we strongly recommend you stop by with your bike or pack up your bike for the trip and bring it by the shop so we can checkout your setup and make recommendations as needed. Feel free to setup an appointment or just stop on by.

This will be a no drop ride. We ride at a party pace with many stops and chances for regrouping as well as resupply. Campfire Cycling will always have a mechanic at the back of the ride so no one is “stuck” alone at the back or in case a mechanical issue come up. There is also food available near the camp.

Please be prepared with all of your own camping gear, food and water if possible. There are bathroom facilities and water (Showers!) available at Catalina State Park.
