Hey Fellow WCC Riders!
Im interested in hosting another group bikepacking trip this year. Last year we had a great time with 5 of us going to the Wildwood Conservation area in early July. We talked bikes and explored some of our amazing surrounding areas!
This year Im wondering if anyone is interested in going to another local camping site for 2 nights?? Some suggestions were Guelph Lake or Rockwood Conservation areas. We would reserve a site or two and bike out on Friday, camp, have a fire and explore the area Saturday, and return home Sunday afternoon. If you have questions let me know. Open to any experience level and first time bikepackers are welcome!
I was looking at the weekends of June 13-15 or June 27-29. Open to other dates as well.

I didn’t end up joining last year’s event and wish to not make the same mistake this time. The weekend of June 27th works for me. If that’s the weekend you end up going with, I’ll be there.

I loved the bikepacking trip last year—it was a lot of fun! Unfortunately, I’m not available during those dates, but I’d be happy to join if it’s earlier in June or later in July.
I’m definitely up for another trip this year. I unfortunately can’t do the the weekend of June 27 because that is the long weekend and I will be headed north. I am ok for the other date or we can try and find another date that works for more people
I am down for bikepacking.
Also, I would be interested in hearing where others are getting gear for bikepacking. I would like to have a tent that packs up smaller. The one I have sticks way off the end of my rack.
@emily.lloyd, I hadn’t realized that is the Canada day long weekend until Geoff mentioned it. Doesn’t change my availability (I need to confirm with my family) but looks like it’s impacting others.
If we stick with that weekend, it looks like Guelph lake has more availability for camp sites. Rockwood is looking booked.
