Aragon, Spain

Weekend Snapshot

By Andrei Turró (@A4d3e)

Coming down the mountain paths toward the medieval village of Montañana during my second night on the Montsec Bikepacking Loop, I started looking for a campground that would offer shelter from the whirling winds. I found the front of some old ruin, and behind it was a small overgrown green tunnel that led me inside a walled yard of a ruined homestead. As I set up up, the sunset colored the walls as the distant church bells announced the arrival of night.

Patagonia, Arizona

Weekend Snapshot

For our son’s spring break, we made the trek down to Patagonia, Arizona, to ride the Sky Islands Loop. We’d been eying this route since 2019, but a winter storm followed by a pandemic postponed it until now. It was a glorious, hard, beautiful route with stellar landscapes and friendly folks. The riding conditions are perfect right now!
