You will learn how to identify appropriate multi-day routes, choose the right equipment, food, and clothing, manage your bike and gear, ride appropriately in wilderness areas, navigate using maps, GPS, and mobile apps, and handle emergency procedures. ### What don’t I need to bring? You do not need to bring a meal for Saturday evening, breakfast on Sunday, snacks for the trail each day, a first aid kit, an extensive bike repair kit, or specialist bike luggage and a lightweight tent as these are provided. ### What is not included in the trip? The trip does not include travel to and from our base at The Speyside Hotel, Grantown on Spey, dinner on Friday and Sunday nights, biking and travel insurance, alcoholic drinks, additional drinks and snacks beyond what we provide, and a bike. ### Why do you have a maximum group size? We limit group sizes to ensure a unique, personal experience without the hassle of differing expectations or skills that can occur in larger groups. Smaller groups also have less environmental impact. ### What if I need to rent a bike? Jim can advise on local bike shops that rent bikes. ### What if I don’t have a sleeping bag or camping mat? You can borrow a sleeping bag and camping mat from us free of charge. ### What if the route is too hard or too easy for me? The routes are designed to be interchangeable. Adjustments can be made en route or on day two after discussing with the group. ### What if I arrive late on Friday night? Inform Jim of your late arrival, and he will notify the hotel. The briefing can be done on Saturday morning. The most important thing is your safe arrival and comfort on Friday night. ### What if I have special dietary requirements? Let Jim know when you receive your booking confirmation about any dietary requirements, such as vegan, vegetarian, or Halal. He will discuss the best options to accommodate your needs. ### Where do I leave my ‘non-bikepacking’ kit on Saturday and Sunday? You can safely store your belongings at The Speyside Hotel until your return on Monday afternoon. Other arrangements can be made if you are not staying at the hotel; just ask Jim. ### Can we stay at The Speyside Hotel for two nights? Yes, staying at The Speyside Hotel for two nights allows you to get to know the staff and explore local attractions on Tuesday. Just ask for this option once you have received your booking confirmation. ### What is bikepacking?
