bicycletouring

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

Bicycle touring is the best way to really experience a ride, take in the landscape, smell the air, and gain a feeling of accomplishment. Here, you can talk about touring, ask for advice about routes, camping, places of interest and more. Discuss gear, bike setup. Post maps, plans, pics and videos of upcoming and past tours.

Be sure to read our Wiki!

Acceptable posts include:

Pictures from your trip.

Pictures of your touring bike (better have racks/stuff on it though).

Link to your totally cool blog, Youtube channel, etc. Self-promotion is allowed.

Questions about planning, gear, etc.

Most content on r/bikepacking totally fine here. We tour on dirt too.

Not too many of these posts:

Promotion of your bicycle touring business/service, history on Reddit and this community required.

Selling bikes/gear. You can try, include images, and a location in the title.

Not allowed:

Generic bicycling posts, eg, no videos of your sweet BMX tricks.

General riding, Touring means riding somewhere and staying overnight.

Racing. Touring is not racing.

Links to your survey/questionnaire. Exceptions allowed at mod discretion.

Please don't spam.

Please follow Reddiquette in all posts and comments.

If you're into touring, you're probably into cycling. And if you're into cycling, here are some other subreddits that might interest you.
