SUMMARY:Sandy SoCal Solstice Campout
DESCRIPTION:This event is hosted by Bikepacking Roots Regional Steward Emily Elliott as part of our Winter Solstice Campout Series \nDates: December 20-22\, 2024 \nLocation: Arroyo Tapiado\, Anza Borrego Desert State Park\, San Diego County\, CA (32°55’06.2″N 116°10’58.8″W) \nJoin us for a free and fun community car-campout in the Anza Borrego State Park. Our primitive/dispersed campsite in Arroyo Tapiado is a favorite of the SoCal bikepacking community. Campers can join Friday evening or Saturday morning. Saturday features a group day ride of Tres Arroyos\, a 19 mile\, 835’ loop entirely of sandy arroyos. Sunday features an optional “explore” group ride (12 miles\, ~500’) up Vallecito wash and a sandy double track to Palm Spring and a tamarisk oasis.  \nIt’s a chance to: \nExplore fascinating geological features like mud caves and the Diablo Drop Off. \nMake new bikepacking friends and build community. \nExpand or develop your desert riding skills. \nConnect with Bikepacking Roots volunteers. \nWho should attend: \nThis event is for intermediate level riders. The atmosphere will be supportive and non-competitive\, with the goal of sharing mountain biking and creating a safe and inclusive opportunity to ride in the desert. You bring your bike\, gear\, 100% of your food and water\, and self-sufficient riding skills and we’ll bring the community and camaraderie. \nHere is a suggested packing list. This is not a bikepacking trip\, but a car-camp and day ride trip\, so no need to carry your gear on your bike. But if you are new to bikepacking there will be plenty of experienced bikepackers around to learn from. \nAfter you register\, you’ll receive an email with additional details. \nRegister for this event here.
