DISCOVER BIKEPACKING THAT FEELS LIKE YOU
This weekend is your entry into bikepacking - without confusion or overwhelm. Bikepacking is more than riding with bags. It’s freedom, simplicity and a way of traveling you can shape your own way. We don’t teach one “right way”. We show possibilities - so you can find yours. You’ll see gear, test options and experience how it works in real life. No experience or equipment needed.
Curiosity is enough - we’ll guide you through the rest.

Who will be guiding you during the weekend?
Patrycja Rucińska
Patrycja travels by bike in her own way - combining riding with everyday life and remote work. Her approach to bikepacking is about lightness, flow and real-life travel - often in warmer parts of the world. She shows that bikepacking doesn’t have to be extreme. It can be simple, accessible and adapted to your lifestyle. During the weekend, she will help you understand how to start - without overwhelm and without overcomplicating things.
Weronika Szałas
Weronika’s second name could easily be “bikepacking”. Her style is rooted in long, multi-month journeys - spending weeks sleeping in a tent and riding fully self-supported. She shows what bikepacking looks like in its more raw, outdoor form - built on experience, logistics and staying close to nature. She brings calm, confidence and a grounded, realistic perspective on what truly matters on the road.

Two different paths.
One experience.
We represent two different ways of approaching bikepacking. One closer to ease, everyday life and integrating travel into it. The other closer to nature, independence and long self-supported journeys.
This gives you a full picture - so you can find your own way.
