Bike packing is the ultimate mix of cycling and camping. It’s also one of the best ways to explore Oregon, especially in the summer months, whether you’re biking through towns or traveling through the backcountry.

On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, co-host Vickie Connor recounts her first and recent bike packing trip and all the reasons she loves this new hobby.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

What is needed to go bike packing?
How you can pack for a one-nighter (spoiler alert: you can pack more on your bike than you might think).
An example of an introductory trip within an hour of Portland.
Why bike packing might be just a little bit more enjoyable than backpacking.
