Today’s edition of Weekend Snapshot takes us back to the first days of fall to tag along with readers enjoying autumnal getaways in three countries. Find bike checks from Spain, Colorado, and France, and share a scene from one of your recent rides here…

We’re winding the clocks back to early fall for this installment of Weekend Snapshot, highlighting a trio of vignettes depicting loaded bikes on trails in the region around Spain’s Montañas Vacías route, Colorado’s scenic Summit County, and a little slice of forest in France. Catch up on all of them below, then scroll further to find a handful of related posts from the archive and a quick form you can use to share a photo from one of your rides.

Teruel, Spain

Weekend Snapshot

By Alfonso Saco

I finally got to do a weekend ride with the very friend who introduced me to bikes three years ago. We have two different Surlys but equal ways of having fun, although not at the same time, based on our tire clearances. This is Montañas Vacias territory but not part of the route itself.

Summit County, Colorado

Weekend Snapshot

By Rob R

Rolled up high for an overnight excursion from the Breckenridge side of the Wheeler Trail over Wheeler Pass to camp on the Colorado Trail near Copper Mountain. Perfect conditions late in the day, chasing daylight.

Rambouillet, France

Weekend Snapshot

By Graham Berry

I decided on a very different 50th birthday to what people usually have: a solo bikepacking trip to Rambouillet from Paris, discovered on the BIKEPACKING.com routes map! I made it to my pitch and managed get my tent up just before the rains came.
