For most us the off season has well and truly arrived. Getting out on the bike requires military planning to ensure the correct layers are chosen to keep warm, the lights are charged and don’t even mention the post ride clean up!

So let get some motivation in the bank and explore some bikepacking goals for 2020. Here is Hunt Beyond’s top ten bikepacking events to enter in 2020.

With Autumn drawing in and winter looming on the horizon (at least in the Northern Hemisphere) it’s time to day dream about summer! Or instead of just daydreaming you could bite the bullet and book a winter bike packing trip to try and find some warmer weather. But where should you go? Read on to find out some top destinations to go bike packing this winter.

South East Asia offers a variety of destinations for a backpacking trip. Cambodia, Vietnam, Lao and Thailand all offer unique cultures and experiences. Traffic can be a little hectic around bigger cities and on main roads, however they are used to slow moving mopeds and motorbikes so after a while you learn to become part of the flow of traffic.

The one-way bikepacking trip is a fantastic way cover a large distance and experience a vast array of landscapes and cultures. It can take you across a mountain range, connect 2 cities or if you pedalled for long enough could cross continents.

But how would you go about planning such an adventure? Read on for some top tips on taking on a one-way trip.

When selecting a wheelset to get you through the darker, colder and wetter months, it is essential to look past whether you have rim or disc brakes. At Hunt, we relish in smashing through the winter miles. If this is a morning commute to work, an hour jaunt early on Saturday or an all-day winter epic on Sunday – getting a wheelset to match your needs will make those miles pass by more easily (and save trashing your good wheels come summer).
