If you are interested in giving bikepacking a go, Bikepacking Scotland is organising two events in August. The first one is an 'Introduction to Bikepacking' on 17 Aug at Craigdon in Edinburgh. This will be the perfect opportunity to learn the tips and tricks from me, and get some more insight in packing, bike choice, route planning etc.
The second one is the Reiver Riding Party, which starts and finishes at Tweedbank Station. It's a two day bikepacking event on the Reiver Raid, a new 175 km bikepacking route in the Ale Water Valley, suitable for mountain and gravel bikes.
