SUMMARY:SWMI: South West Michigan 4 Night Ride 2025- Adult Overnight with Out Our Front Door out of Chicago\, IL
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”teammateRow”][vc_column width=”1/4″ el_class=”teammateImage”][vc_single_image image=”63835″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” image_hovers=”false”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″ el_class=”teammateDescription”][vc_row_inner el_class=”TeammateContent”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=””] \nRide Specifics\nMileage: Day 1 The group will ride that beaut of a route to the Indiana Dunes. This is the biggest day. About 75 miles and camp at the national park. \nDay 2 Roll out around noon and slow roll our way about 45 miles up to Weko Beach Campground in Bridgman\, MI. \nDay 3 is a chill day. Relax on the beach all day or ride into town for some beers or hop on the 25ish mile loop that an OOFD will be leading. Or even go adventure off on your own through the gorgeous country roads of Michigan beer and wine country. So much good beer\, food\, wine\, and beach to explore. The campground is a 4 minute walk to a stellar beach and the epic dunes of Warren are just a few minute walk down the beach. \nDay 4 we ride about 40 miles up to Van Buren State Park which is just south of Grand Haven\, MI. \nDay 5 we ride about 60 miles to South Bend\, IN and hop the South Shore Train back to the city. A UHaul will transport bikes back to Chicago as the South Bend stop cannot take bikes this year due to track construction. \nSupport: Sag van that will carry one school sized backpack per rider \nLodging: \nThursday – Dunewood Campground – Indiana Dunes\, IN \nFriday/Saturday – Weko Beach Campground – Bridgeman\, MI \nSunday – Van Buren State Park – Van Buren\, MI \nPace: 12-15mph \nTrail/Route: Paved road with minimal gravel incorporated and possible snow. \nAge: Adult Ride (21+) \nTrip Description\nWhat’s Included: 4 nights/5 days of bike camping (It is possible to join us a day late and leave a day early if needed) \nThis ride is an ecstatic celebration of Lake Michigan and all that it coast has to offer. This is going down in the heart of the summer and there will be plenty of chances to go swimming in our gem of a lake. Hence the name\, the SWMI\, “swimmy”\, ride. Roll with some of the best guides OOFD has to offer as we finally break into our 4th state\, Michigan! Learn about the ecology of the lake and the lake shore while also exploring some of its hidden gems and excellent local spots. \nThe organizers understand pulling off a 5 day ride might be tough\, so you can join us Thursday night or Friday morning at the IN Dunes. The south shore train is super convenient for this. Also\, if you need to dip out on Sunday\, the Amtrak and South Shore can get ya back to the city no problem. But the price for the trip is all the same\, so you should take advantage of this extended summertime adventure if you can. \nFor a more in depth breakdown of what each day looks like\, check this out.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Bodfish Bike Camping with California Travis in the Lassen National Forest in California
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”teammateRow”][vc_column width=”1/4″ el_class=”teammateImage”][vc_single_image image=”70981″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” image_hovers=”false”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″ el_class=”teammateDescription”][vc_row_inner el_class=”TeammateContent”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=””] \n\n\n\n\n\nThis July\, California Travis and crew are heading back out on this classic Bodfish Loop overnighter in Lassen National Forest! This route goes over Humboldt and Humbug summits\, stops at an ice cold spring on the PCT\, a naturally carbonated spring off Cottonwood Meadow\, and we camp in the woods along Butt Creek. It’s one of our most remote routes\, with no amenities\, no stores\, no collaborators\, and no cell service. Just us\, forests\, dirt\, and creeks. \nJuly 19th\, we roll out of the Jonesville Snowmobile Parking Lot at 10 am sharp. This route is 95% gravel\, 55 miles total\, with 5100 feet of climbing\, spread over two days. \nThis will be self-supported dispersed camping following LNT principles\, so bring: food\, sleep system\, a water filter\, and a way to bury your own poop (trowel). As always\, this is a casual\, open-invite trip. There is no sag\, and no registration or money required\, but we’ll try to make sure nobody is left behind or stranded. We all wear helmets and ask that you do as well. \nThese rides are at a conversational pace\, and we stick together. If you want to KOM your Strava or impress people by being first up the climb\, don’t bother coming\, as the best of the party is at the back of the pack.\nThe route link is in my bio. Be sure to download it in one form or another before the trip\, as cell service can be nonexistent in this area\, and if something unforeseen happens\, we want you to be able to navigate back to your vehicle safely. Jump into any of our DM’s for questions or advice\, and we hope to see you there! \n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
