Ranchita Rambler with Emily Elliot in Borrego Springs, California
The Ranchita Rambler Grand Depart is not a race, but you can ride fast if you want to. It is intended as a chill weekend of bikepacking with friends, and is an excellent option for experienced mountain bikers for their first bikepacking adventure. Riders will start together and camp together, but are encouraged to ride their own pace and are expected to navigate for themselves.
