BikePacking to Lake Sommerville

March 25th, 9:00 AM - March 27th, 4:00 pm

This is an amazing bikepacking destination. This trip is suitable for anyone who is completely new to bikepacking, but has good fitness to ride 80 miles with 2000 ft climbing on a loaded bike. For example, a typical gravel cyclist or a roadie who wants to have a decent endurance ride and have a lake campsite as a bonus. At this time of the year, the temps are best for long days in a saddle and nights aren't too frigid, either. The route has about 10 miles of gravel, but most of the trip is on small paved country roads. We know folks who'd done it on a road bike with 28mm tires. The trip is for two nights at the Lake. Day 1 - 80 miles to the Lake. Lunch stop in Belleville Meat Market. Day 2 - at the Lake, chilling or hiking or riding or swimming. Day 3 - 80 miles back to Cinco Ranch.
