Beginner Overnighter to Catalina

***If you would like to join this ride but it is cost prohibitive to do so or if you need to borrow gear to make it happen, please let us know.

We’ll be leaving Campfire Cycling at 11AM for a 23 mile ride up the loop (Paved bike path) with bathrooms as well as water fountains and options for supplies to Catalina State Park. We’ll be staying at a group campground with room for 20 tents.

On 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.

If this is your first bikepacking trip, we are here to help. If you like advise on gear need or want any other advice we strongly recommend you stop by with your bike or pack up your bike for the trip and bring it by the shop so we can checkout your setup and make recommendations as needed. Feel free to setup an appointment or just stop on by.

While this is a beginner oriented bikepacking trip, everyone is welcome. I’m sure all of the newbies will appreciate having experienced campers along for the ride. It's a great opportunity to do a shake down run with new gear or a new to you setup as well as sharing experinece, knowledge and setups.

This will be a no drop ride. We ride at a party pace with many stops and chances for regrouping as well as resupply. There is bathrooms and water along the route. Campfire Cycling will also always have a mechanic at the back of the ride so no one is left behind in case trouble arises. There is also food available near the camp.

Please be prepared with all of your own camping gear, food and water. There are bathroom facilities (Showers!) and water available at Catalina State Park. There is also Stores and restaurants nearby.
