This edition of Weekend Snapshot whisks us away to the mountains of Ecuador and two regions of the United States. Check in with a handful of readers who recently got outside to spin the pedals and use the form to share a photo from one of your rides here…
Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Weekend Snapshot, our recurring Monday series that’s been helping us kick off each week for nearly two years. In today’s installment, we join three folks from our global bikepacking community and follow them on quick getaways around Michigan, Ecuador, and Georgia. Take a peek at all three vignettes below, then use the short form to share a shot of your own.
Georgia

By Mark Babcock
EK and Ava, both 11, decided to do a 24-mile gravel ride fueled exclusively by leftover Halloween candy. It was a resounding success!
Ecuador

By Zach Fowler
I recently did a self-supported, four-day trip following the Los Tres Volcanes route from this site. It was a wonderful experience before the rainy season begins here and an incredible way to see a more unique side of this country.
Michigan

By Allie Lindstrom
Our local shop puts on two bikepacking trips a year to bookend the season. The fall trip this year was full of slow-rolling laughter.
