That’s on Roger St, correct?
That’s right!
Hi Everyone! Thanks for meeting last Sunday. We had a great chat and got some good info about what we are looking for in regard to bike packing trips. Unfortunately it didnt sound like we could all find a time to go together this fall (if you plan something keep us posted here as I am always interested in learning more about what ppl are up to).
In regards to planning for 2026, I have created two polls for you to vote on.
1. What dates can we do it? (rank order)
2. What distances/locations are you interested in? (rank order)
Below is a list of options for bikepacking trips next year. Let me know which option you would prefer by placing them in a ranked order. I am open to changing details like specific places to stay or reverse the trips if needed as well. Let me know your thoughts on the great debate of Lake Huron vs Lake Erie. I personally prefer lake Huron because it has the wonderful sunsets to view. Will keep an eye on the responses over the next few weeks.

We chatted a bit last weekend about the routes found here by Matthew Kadey: BIKEPACKING ONTARIO - Bikepacking Ontario these are fantastic routes and I recommend following the BT700 on Instagram for the grand depart info each year. I do think most of these routes would need more than 4 days to complete at the pace I go. But if anyone is ever going to give one of them a shot let us know. I love to follow those adventures however I can (and maybe someone would come along to join as well).
