Valencia, Spain

Weekend Snapshot

By Pedro Wessels

After a full day of pedaling during a four-day bikepacking adventure, we hit a snag when our planned campsite turned out to be closed for the winter. Undeterred, we pushed forward and stumbled upon a jaw-dropping spot just as the sun dipped behind the mountains, painting the sky gold. As we set up camp, we enjoyed the crisp night air, knowing dawn would reveal a memorable view. Come morning, as we brewed coffee, the vast landscape reminded us of the thrill in embracing the unexpected.

Ireland

Weekend Snapshot

By Colin Tuff

With a new rack/bag setup fitted to the bike ahead of this summer’s adventures, I pedalled out for a solo overnighter to test the waters and reset after a busy week. Dry days have been few and far between so far this year in the UK/Ireland, and that early morning sunshine felt sweeter than ever.

Ancash, Peru

Weekend Snapshot

Riding through the cordilleras of the Ancash region may be a tough challenge, but the views are so rewarding! This shot was taken amid the beautiful Cordillera Huallanca.
