  Bikepacking Roots

our vision and mission

Our Mission

Bikepacking Roots supports and advances bikepacking, the growth of a diverse bikepacking community, and access to and the conservation of the landscapes and public lands through which we ride.


Our Goals
  • We are growing the bikepacking community by welcoming, engaging, and connecting people of all races, sexual orientations, backgrounds, and skill levels.
  • We create and sustain intentional, enjoyable, and accessible bikepacking routes and route networks throughout North America for beginner to expert riders.
  • We advocate for public access to and increased protections of public lands.
  • We connect bikepackers with landscapes, inspiring riders to become public lands and conservation advocates who follow a “positive impact ethos”
  • We provide and promote visibility and access for bikepackers by fostering positive, long-term relationships with public land managers, private landowners, and the small communities through which we ride

For more detailed organizational information, we have our past annual reports (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021), as well as our Bylaws, available for viewing.
