Join us This Thursday for a Bicycle Camping Workshop

Please join us this Thursday, January 29 at Walkabout Outfitters for an evening "workshop" to talk about Bicycle Camping, Bike touring, Bikepacking, or whatever else you may want to call it. We had 4 fun and adventurous Bicycle Camping trips last year and are very happy to announce 4 more for 2015. Our two spring dates are set for Saturday April 18 and Saturday May 30.

The workshop is free and open to everyone so please join us at 6:30pm at Walkabout Outfitters in Downtown Harrisonburg. We will have our very own Matt Hassman, bicycle camping extraordinaire, on hand with a fully loaded touring bicycle to show you what it looks like to fill your bags and head to the mountains. We will also have Paul Hansbarger, a recent addition to the Friendly City, Paul has his own frame bag company where he can sew you custom frame bags for your bike touring needs. Paul's company Wanderlust is off the ground and running so make sure to check it out.

Bring your questions, and we will bring some answers. What to bring, wear, eat, how to cook, where to go, how to carry your gear. This is the first of two workshops so be sure to mark Thursday February 19 on your calendar for our second workshop, this time at Shenandoah Bicycle Company.
