Just a quickie.... I get the impression Bikepacking is very much a solo activity .... what is deemed to be an indecent size group.? We had 6 of us on our first trip. We stayed at a campsite at a pub, so not exactly roughing it. A group of that size probably is less than ideal. Is there a notional ma...

The trans cambrian way heads west from llanfair waterdine which is just outside of knighton, you could fit some if the in before cutting back south to radnor. You may want to keep an eye on the weather as lots of the trails are grassy and pretty sapping in the wet. There is a hefty bridleway from L...

hiya i saw your bikepacking trip photos,looks like you had a good time, met alot of you at ssuk, you most probably need to camp on route to your first hill, bit flat around your area :lol: surprised me how well represented your club is, and a decent bunch as well,lots of great info on here 4 of us ...

I don't suppose you have the .gpx for the first two days do you? I'm trying to sort a Radnorshire route at the moment :)

Can I join you for a ride round your way? I'd be happy to be quizzed on on bikepacking and more than happy to reciprocate and show you some lesser used corners of the dark peak. :-) Feel free .... it's hardly exciting round Cov but we have a nice social ride, gotta make the most of what you've got....

Probably just a 2 day / 1 night route. Sort of Kington, Knighton area.
I've worked out a 60miler 8000' route which sounds about right. Needs work and local knowledge though...

Why the DD tarp? Seemed like a good buy (not that I have bought one) and I like the loops down the middle .... plus quite a bit cheaper. The bicycle 3.5 sounds tiny.... so I was looking at the bicycle 7 is quite a bit bigger so I figured more versatile.... the DD is 3m x 3m so bigger again and half...

Seems an obvious progression really, MTB to Bikepacking.... we're very XC biased and so we have half the kit already... well the bike stuff anyway I prefer natural riding to Trail Centres so bikepacking ticks a lot of boxes.

I don't think I'm ready for doing it solo....

I'm hoping to do a route in Radnorshire ..... I'm sure it's been done plenty of times before ... does anyone have any route suggestions?

Hi folks, Sort of a newbie, on here anyway. Quick intro. I run Godiva Trailriders mtb club out of Coventry. We, as a club, have started bikepacking ... 6 of us did a taster ride from Calver in the Peak District back to Coventry over 2 days and had a great time. Kit is basic at the moment but we'll m...
