Five days in Santiago, three group rides with Pedal y Grava, Specialized Chile & Across Andes. Plenty of time to talk & rest 🇨🇱 What a lovely bikepacking community 😍 Everyone is in it for personal challenge, beauty & adventure. It might be the most encouraging group I’ve ever spent time with. There will be 30 women at the start of @acrossandes, a 1,000km mixed terrain ultra in Southern Chile— a great turnout for an ultra. Chile seems like a great place for a future @komoot women’s bikepacking rally. A huge thank you to the locals for making us feel so welcome— to Paulina & Mauriano for inviting us and Mailen & Pablo for hosting us 💛 Rue & I are heading south to spend a couple of weeks touring the route. So grateful to be here. Looking forward to be riding & sleeping outside 🏕️ Photos by @rugilekaladyte
