New Mexico Bikepacking Summit: Origins & Connections

Our goals for this first summit, Origins and Connections, are to raise awareness of the New Mexico Bikepacking Network, discuss how this could be beneficial to folks across the state, and outline some strategies to help us succeed in creating something inclusive, sustainable, and truly New Mexican.

We’ll kick things off with a NM based bike and goods sale at Outdoor Adventures. Some of your favorite people will be on hand selling their bottles, handlebars, bikes, bags, stickers, and more.

After a lunch break, we’ll get to the heart of the summit. We’ve lined up a few experts and all around good folks to share what they know. There will be some talk about bikes and big rides, but we’ll also discuss economic development and outdoor equity.
