What is a Rally?
It’s a self-supported multi-day bikepacking ride:
- Free to enter 7-day group rides
- Sociable, bringing like-minded riders together
- Flexible, with tougher and easier options most days
We simply ask those who can afford it to make a donation of any size, to cover our costs and help us in our work to increase access to bikepacking.
2026 rally change: extensive sub-station & logging work on the planned Argyll route means we can’t ride this next year… so the Spine route returns! Edinburgh to Inverness over 7 days.
What is a Wild Weekend?
Well I guess there are other kinds, but the RS version is:
- Free to enter 2 or 3-day long weekend rides
- Apart from that, just like a Rally
Our 2026 Wild Weekend rides are spread out geographically and throughout the year. entry buttons for each ride in 2026 are below.
