Experience Trips
Want to build your confidence, experience and knowledge to take on a bikepacking challenge or race?
This is the trip for you!
Why do an experience trip?
Build your confidence, knowledge and experience in a fun and safe environment!
It took me years of trial-and-error learning to gain the deep experience and knowledge I have. Shortcut this painful technique and come learn directly and efficiently from me.
We will learn through doing, on the go experience is the best way to really learn. While reading a blog or book can give you some ideas, when you get out there into the wild you’ll only have a rough idea and false confidence. Come with me and get real confidence.
Doing an ultra-endurance race or bikepacking event is a big, and perhaps expensive undertaking, so maximise your potential to be your best.
