Non-riding event: learn all about bikepacking!

Saturday, July 23, 2022

This is not an OutCycling event, but is run by 718 Cyclery. www.718c.com

If you've ever thought about extending your riding experience into camping but have no idea where to start, this class is perfect.

Joe from 718 Cyclery has been organizing and leading overnight and multiday bikepacking trips for years and is a treasure trove of knowledge. I've gone on a number of his trips and his experience and know-how has made them really wonderful. I wholeheartedly recommend this session to learn how to plan a trip, what to expect, and how to prepare.

From 718 Cyclery:

Join us this Saturday, July 23 at 6pm at Principles G.I. Coffee House, (139 9th Street in Brooklyn), for our free Bike Packing Class

Fresh off of leading 16 riders on the GAP/C&O (Pittsburgh to DC), and having led over 50 overnight bike camping trips, I am going to go over my planning, packing, riding and camping methods that will allow you to get out there on your own and/or with your crew!

Growing this community is sparked by the transfer of knowledge. In my world, knowledge is not something owned or sold, but something shared
