Scotland

Weekend Snapshot

By Rob Mendes

On a recent Sunday, we rode out to explore old Roman roads, drovers’ roads, and cooled off with a swim in the River Tweed in Peebles.

Wisconsin, USA

Weekend Snapshot

By Savi Holden

I am an 18-year-old who recently set off on a journey to bike the entirety of Wisconsin. I bought my bike the month before, sewed a bunch of my own bike bags, and dehydrated all of my own meals. In 10 days, I completed a solo, unsupported, 600-mile bikepacking adventure from the Wisconsin-Illinois border to Lake Superior at the very top of the state. If interested, you can read more about it here.

Washington, USA

Weekend Snapshot

By Luke Tokunaga

There’s something special about a bikepacking trip where your route depends just as much on ferry schedules as it does on your legs. My brother Max, friend Jono, and I caught the ferry from Anacortes, Washington, bound for the San Juan Islands with just one goal: squeeze as much riding as possible into a single weekend.
