Join Alpkit in Edinburgh for three evenings throughout May diving into all things bikepacking…
Alpkit – Adventures with Ana – Introduction to Bikepacking
Curious about bikepacking? Is something holding you back ? Want to deep dive into kit, bags, routes and more…?
Come and share 3 evenings in an open, curious and supported space with Ana – where there are no stupid questions.
Event Breakdown
Evening 1 : What is bikepacking? Barriers? What do you want to get out of these sessions? Ana is keen to steer the needs of these sessions to what you want to know. A big ol’ discussion – supported with snacks and a cuppa :) (and free pizza!)
Evening 2 : Kit,Kit,Kit. Ana brings in her full set-up – bags,bike and all the kit she packs onto her bike. We’ll cover tips on the essentials and must-haves on the trail. Bring on the frank chat about all things adventure. We will also be sampling the wonder of lightweight food on the go – thanks to LyoFood we will be supplying samples on the night!
Evening 3: For the love of logistics. We will get into route prep, maps, weather, resources and public transport options for you and your bike! We will round off with an insight into Ana’s bikepacking guiding – Adventures with Ana, with lots of time for questions on the past sessions too.
