BIKEPACKING WALES SOCIAL RIDE
Here at Bikepacking Wales we feel passionate about all things Bikepacking, Gravel riding and outdoor adventure.
Our aim is to build a community of cyclists and bikepackers here in Eryri (Snowdonia).
The Social ride is open to all riders just turn up and ride as much as you want and at a pace you want.
The routes will be between 20km-40km and suitable for Gravel bikes, MTBikes and Ebikes. All riders are responsible for their own safety and come equipped with everything you would bring on a solo ride (including helmet).
Follow us on https://www.komoot.com/collection/1817037/-bikepacking-wales-social-rides where we will post the gpx prior to the ride. Don't have a bike or fancy taking a Sonder Demo bike out for a spin then get in touch with Alpkit store Betws Y Coed for details https://alpkit.com/pages/betws-y-coed
WOMEN'S GRAVEL SOCIAL RIDE
We are now introducing brand new social rides exclusively for women and non-binary folk alike. These will be monthly events held at various locations across North Wales.
Our aim is simple: to have fun on two wheels!
The terrain will be a mixture of gravel and forestry tracks which will suit gravel, hybrid and hardtail mountain bikes. E-bikes are also welcome! The intention is to cover a distance of about twelve miles over the course of a couple of hours, so a relaxed and chatty pace! There will also be plenty of opportunities to stop for snacks and drinks along the route.
Everyone is responsible for their safety, but that's not to say we aren't here to support one another, in fact quite the opposite! We understand that jumping on a bike and heading out for a ride isn't always straightforward for everyone, and for many different reasons. With this in mind, we hope to cultivate a sense of solidarity between us in a welcoming and encouraging environment.
When attending the socials, please ensure you have all the appropriate equipment and any medication on your person.
We will contact you with further details nearer the time, including a suggested kit list. If you do have any questions in the meanwhile, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Happy riding!
