One night overnight bikepacking trip. This route is a nearly flat, gravel trail.
Distance to campsite is 5-9 miles out, depending on site availability. Primitive campsite (no bathroom), but supply stop for food and drinks at about 6.5 miles from the trailhead (1-2 miles from the campsite).
On Day 1, the group will meet at the Alston Trailhead and ride together to the campsite, where they will set up camp. Then, anyone interested in continuing to ride will finish the rest of the trail (an additional 11ish miles). For the rest of the day, we will hang out at the campsite and may ride back and forth to Wilson’s for snacks and dinner. Plan is to stop at Wilson’s gas station to purchase dinner (hamburgers, bbq sandwiches) and snacks/ drinks for the night; however, if you have significant dietary restrictions, please pack your own items that fit your needs. Day 2, after breakfast and coffee, the group will break down camp, help transport any trash to dumpsters at Wilson’s, then ride 5 miles back to the trail head.
This is a Women/Trans/Femme/Non-Binary bikepacking trip. Do not let lack of gear stop you- Cola Town Bike Collective has resources for borrowing items. All participants must be 18 years or older and participate at their own risk.
