I love bike camping and am starting to host trips where I live. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get to know the rural parts of their region. You can often ask around at bike shops (particularly the adventury types of bike shop) to learn who in the area runs them.
One of the best camping experiences I’ve had was when we took our bicycles to a state park.
To be fair, we drove there because it was about 4 hours away from us, but we thoroughly enjoyed the multi-use trail available at the park. It was so much fun with plenty of hills and wildlife to get the blood pumping.
I definitely want to go back and explore bike camping (or motor-bike camping) further.
Great photo, and I’d love to hear more about your adventure!
I’m a huge fan of the ebike for camping too. In 2021, I took a year off work to ebike around the US.
This weekend’s adventure was low-key by comparison, just a 14 mile ride from downtown Madison, WI out to a county park campground.
Wow! That’s quite the journey! I wish I could do something like that. I bet it was amazing!
Most State Parks have hiker/biker sites.
I’m CA most of these are $5 a night per person.
I’ve been taking my family down on weekends when we dont have plans. It’s nice to be able to get a spot with out reservations
Ride safe and camp happy!
Great idea!
Interesting will look into that see if they do that here in my area. And if not could always start my own.
I don’t actually know how to even go camping without a car, but I do love biking around campgrounds.
that’s awesome! i started a bike camping meetup in my area about a year ago. it’s been a really fun way to get people involved in the activity.
