The deadline to join the Bikepacking Collective and start your membership with issue 14 of The Bikepacking Journal is today, April 17th, by 11:59 p.m. EDT.

The Bikepacking Journal 14
We’re wrapping up work on another outstanding issue of The Bikepacking Journal, which will be printed and shipped to Sustainer/Builder-level Bikepacking Collective members worldwide in June. Spanning 160 colorful pages, the new issue follows a talented group of contributors as they pedal spectacular tracks and trails around the Tibetan Plateau, New Zealand, the American Southwest, Peru, Germany, Montana, Morocco, and beyond.
As always, we’ve curated a thoughtful mix of engaging essays and immersive narratives that you won’t want to miss. The complete collection of stories is available exclusively in print, and after tonight’s deadline, it won’t be possible to get a copy of our 14th issue. We take great pride in this approach, and the Journal is produced at a world-class printer in Germany using premium papers and inks. It’s designed to be something you’ll want to display proudly on your coffee table or bookshelf for years to come.
20+ Fresh Prize Packages
Our latest group of Collective Reward giveaways features around 20 prize packages that we’ll randomly distribute to Bikepacking Collective members throughout the world. Prizes include a complete microSHIFT Sword Black groupset, any frameset from Brother Cycles in the UK, Silca floor pumps, an MSR Hubba Hubba Bikepack tent, a RatKing RIP Rack V3, bags from Rogue Panda, Old Man Mountain, Take a Trip, and much more worth roughly $6,000.
Free Route of Caravans Map
As a bonus, all Sustainer/Builder-level Bikepacking Collective members will receive a stunning fold-out Route of Caravans map by artist Alex Hotchin inside the 14th issue of The Bikepacking Journal. It’s rich in hand-drawn detail and measures 40 x 60 centimeters (15.7 x 23.6 inches) when unfolded.
Exclusive Member Discounts
We’re excited to unveil our latest batch of members-only savings on bikes, parts, apparel, accessories, and more from nearly 30 brands. All members of the Bikepacking Collective have access to exclusive savings (around 20 percent on average) from some of our favorite companies.

Members can use Basecamp, our new web app designed to connect our members with us and the greater bikepacking community. Basecamp features three modules: Bike Camp Co-op, enabling members to buy, sell, and trade gear with likeminded folks around the world; Ride Rendezvous, through which members can organize outings and find riding buddies; and Ask the Experts, allowing members to pose burning questions to our team and the broader group.
