Bayou City Outdoors & REI Present Bikepacking 101 May 11, 2010

Love your bike and ready to have even more fun? Join us for an evening of Bikepacking- where you enjoy an overnight or longer from your bike. Even though Bikepacking is rather new to the outdoor adventure repertoire of most, it has been around for years. It has seen lots of growth in recent years, possibly due to the ever-decreasing weight and size of gear. It is now possible to put everything you need on your bike, perhaps a few things on your back, and head off for a night or two on single track trails. With panniers or a trailer the night or two can stretch to a week or even a summer.

Speaker: Kelly Howard. Kelly is new to bikepacking and looking forward to her first extended weekend on the trails with her bike over Memorial weekend in Arkansas. As the owner of Bayou City Outdoors, Kelly loves to introduce Houstonian's to new and fun adventures.

7:00 PM Class; 8:00 PM Gear demonstrations. 7538 Westheimer Rd, Houston, TX 77063 (at Hillcroft) (you will find us in the back of the store in the warehouse area)
