During the route\, riders cross numerous forests\, the Cross Florida Greenway\, two mountain bike parks\, and miles of some of Florida’s longest and hardest climbs. That’s right; we said long and hard. \nRiders are on a self-contained and self-supported expedition on this magnificent\, mostly off-road route. \nPlus\, Bikepacking Roots‘ Executive Director Noelle Battle\, Board President Mike Teachey & Regional Steward Adam Rouillier will be at the Expo on Friday\, February 6th — stop by and say hello\, grab some cool merch & learn more about our work!⁠ \nVisit the event page for more details and to get your tickets. \nThis event is part of Bikepacking Root’s Community Event Calendar\, where we share bikepacking events across the US and Canada.

Give us a call\, stop by the shop\, or have your carrier pigeon drop us a message and we’ll help get you ready for clownin’ in the cold!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/paynes-point-hook-spear-fishing-club-inc/winter-bikepacking-across-bago/1208399804066248/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you wanna join this or any of our events\, please fill out one of these forms: https://forms.gle/82zjNJ8MxV86hDmf7\n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Gila 100 Bikepack Grand Depart
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=”68288″ 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_row_inner][vc_column_inner][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=””]Come spend Valentine’s Day with your bikepacking kin out on the wild and scenic @aztassociation as we ride the Gila 100 the direction it was intended\, North to South from Picketpost to Oracle. Be sure to register on the AES site if you want in on the fun and @homegrownmtb shuttle. \n\nFormerly the long course of the Antelope Peak Challenge\, it was later turned into its own event beginning at Picketpost and finishing at Tiger Mine Trail Head in Oracle. After participation dwindled (this is a super hard single-day ride with the fastest riders completing it in 12 hours\, and stragglers finishing in 20+)\, the Gila 100 organizers have decided to experiment with breaking this outstanding stretch of the Arizona National Scenic Trail into 2 big\, hefty days of riding. \nSpeaking of the AZT\, please consider donating to the AZT Association! \nBeginning in 2025\, though\, this event will be a point-to-point\, 2-day stage event just like the Coconino 250. This means there will be a coordinated campsite at the end of day 1. Of course\, anyone is welcome to do the full 100-mile event on the Arizona Trail without the camping if they so choose. \nWe will flip the direction every year\, with a 2026 group depart from Picketpost Trailhead and finishing at Tiger Mine Trailhead in Oracle. \n Southbound direction. \nThis is a 92-mile route between the Picket Post trailhead to Tiger Mine Rd on the Arizona Trail. The trail is marked (Arizona Trail the entire way). This route is VERY challenging\, but goes through some outstanding sections of the AZT. If you have the will and ability\, it is worth the effort.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Advanced 2 Nighter: Sky Islands Odyssey East with Campfire Cycling and Oveja Negra in Arizona
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=”71550″ 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=””]This ride is being offered by the folks at Campfire Cycling. \n\n***If you would like to join this ride but the cost/transportation is prohibitive or you need to borrow gear to make it happen\, please reach out to the folks at Campfire Cycling. \nOn our Community Events/Rides we follow our Campfire Code of Conduct. We strive to create a positive and supportive environment where everyone feels welcome and heard. We don’t assume anyone’s abilities based on outwards appearance. We take responsibility for our actions and words. We respect the land\, it’s original stewards and leave no trace. \nAre You Ready for the Adventure?\nThis ride is brought to you in partnership with Oveja Negra. They have sent us some cool raffle prizes to stoke everyone out! If you’re not familiar with Oveja Negra\, they are a rad outfit where everything is designed and built in Salida\, Colorado. They make fantastic bags in both amazing colors and fantastic utility! \nTo bring things together for our bikepacking ride series\, we’re headed down to do Sarah Swallow’s Sky Islands Odyssey East Loop. We’ve come up with our own slightly modified version of this fantastic route (Running Clockwise this year). \nThe plan is to park in Amado at the Elephant Head / Anza Trailhead. We’ll ride around 30 miles with 2500+ feet elevation gain and camp near Kentucky Camp. The next day we’ll do another ~45 mile ride including riding down the AZT through Gardner Canyon (option to go around available via Fish Canyon to the 83) with a resupply lunch stop option at Senoita and dry camping off Hershaw Road. For the last day\, we’ll be doing a ~45+ mile ride through Patagonia with an opportunity for resupply as well as breakfast/brunch in Patagonia followed by a big rough climb through Solera Canyon to get back to our vehicles. Plan on being able to carry at least 5-6 Litres of water per day as well as 1.5 days worth of food at a minimum. \nThis ride is advanced bikepacking with Challenging terrain\, steep and rough climbing with hike-a-bike sections\, remoteness and dry camping the 2nd night highlight the challenges. The terrain is mostly gravel roads with some rough and sandy sections as well as some singletrack. We recommend a hardtail mountain bike or a minimum of 50mm tires. \nRide Pace is ride at your own comfortable pace. This is not a race. We generally ride at a party pace with many meetups and stops so we can re-group. Campfire Cycling will always have a mechanic at the back of the ride so no one is “stuck” alone at the back or incase a mechanical issue come up. \nAdditionally cold temperatures during both nights camping at around 4500 feet necessitate colder weather gear. Average lows in Patagonia during February are reported at 30 degrees. So being a little higher up\, anticipate a low of 20 to 25 degrees. A 20 degree bag (or warmer!) and insulated pad\, as well as down jacket\, long underwear and wool socks is the general recommendation though this of course varies depending on how hot or cold you sleep as well as constantly changing weather patterns \nWe will be contacting everyone who signs up for the ride to make sure they are prepared for the challenge. Please sign up if you plan on joining us. \nThe weather can be prohibitive in February\, so if it is overly challenging we may have to cancel. The dirt changes to very sticky peanut mud very quickly! \nRead more about the route HERE \nNonPremium RideWithGPS users can get access to premium features for this route and other Campfire Cycling routes. \n\nGo to CampfireCycling’s Ride with GPS page.\nClick Join Now.\nIf not already signed in\, sign in to your Ride with GPS Account.\nOR Setup a Free Basic Ride with GPS Account.\nYou will now be able to access this route and our Route Library.\n\n***We strongly recommend all participants who do not have offline access to the route on their phone or other navigation devise\, setup a free RideWithGPS account and use the above process to access the route and download it to their phone. \nProtect the land/area that we recreate on. We will be on the traditional lands stewarded and still lived in by the Tohono O’Odham Peoples. Right now the Santa Rita’s are in danger of more damage from large scale mining operations.
