Enjoy our relaxing weekend bikepacking adventure packages providing the opportunity to unwind and enjoy some of the Cotswolds, Brecon Beacons & Quantocks classic adventure cycling routes.

Experience wild camping and enjoying the simple pleasures of cooking outside and the warmth of a camp fire.

​Our riding style is focused on enjoyment and adventure as opposed to white knuckle down hill descents. Routes will take between 6-8 hours to complete with stops en route to enjoy coffee, cake and lunch! We run a number of 2 day packages catering for newcomers to experienced riders ensuring that you get the most out of your time with us:

Cotswolds - Perfect for beginners and intermediate riders with basic levels of fitness and ability.
Quantocks - Ideal for intermediate and advanced riders looking for a more challenging weekend with the odd cafe stop.
Brecon Beacons - Intermediate to advanced riders looking for a weekend to test themselves in remote and wild high country.
You will need a moderate level of fitness to get the most out of the weekend, as there will be a few hills to climb.​
