“Bougie Bikepacking at it’s Finest”
Good friend of the shop and Sanitas Cycles rider, Chad Clewely, shared his most recent bikepacking adventure, traversing the Utah wilderness along the Aquarius Trail Hut System.
A Hut-to-Hut style adventure provides many of the joyful experiences of a traditional bikepacking excursion without having to carry the additional food or gear. Riding a designated daily point-to-point route and ending at a hut that is off-grid but fully furnished is what Chad calls “Bougie bikepacking at its finest”.
Chad and his crew choose the self-guided 6-day, 5-night route from Brain Head to Escalante, Utah via dirt roads, jeep roads, and a mix of amazing singletrack.
“Thunder Mountain trail singletrack and the Great Western Trail 001 were definitely the highlights of the trip! “
“The Root Ti was made for this trip. It's the perfect bike for me!”
