We’re proud to announce that we will be involved in our local Swift Campout, a yearly bikepacking adventure organized by Swift Industries, a manfacturer of high-quality bike luggage. (Disclaimer: we sell their gear, but it really is that good – come check it out) Check out mechanic par excellence and glorious Swift Campout leader Kyle Mason’s page for further details!

Our Swift Campout – Vancouver Edition this year will be at the Nanaimo Lakes. You can take a bus or bike to Horseshoe bay, and after that it’s a short 30-40km ride to the campsite. The full GPS route can be found here.

Anyone is welcome to the ride – as you can see from this post about the 2017 Vancouver Swift campout, a wide variety of people attend. However, be prepared to camp, to pack in and pack out, to carry everything you will need on your bike, to fish, to swim, to enjoy the sun, and maybe even to pan for gold!

We hope to see you there!
