There’s also support and monthly virtual meet ups to get to know everyone and form relationships which enable groups to be created in certain areas and join in the fun.

Bikepacking Buds is dedicated to creating a non-competitive, supportive space where people live more adventurously.

We connect people of all different levels and experiences that want to go on bikepacking adventures. On our podcast we share diverse stories from our community and through our blog, monthly webinars and route collections we provide people with the tools and resources to start their own adventure.

Most importantly Bikepacking Buds is a free and inclusive community, created to help people connect and share cycling adventures. We want to help reduce the barriers preventing people from going bikepacking, one of which was finding other people to go with.
