Andorra Overnight Adventure: Brotherhood Bikepacking in Minimalistic Fashion
When your pro friend asks you to join his @andorraworld altitude training camp, you shouldn't hesitate and start packing right away.
A month filled with daily rides and a lot of desk work, was topped of with this micro adventure; an overnighter in the Pyrenees. With Andorra as a starting point, we smuggled our way across the border. The 'La Contrabandistes' gravel event route worked as a blue print, so shoutout to @robertgesinkcycling and @CarlosVeronaVlog for the #routespiration !
This adventure was once again a reminder that just saying 'yes' to adventure is always the right thing to do.
No (t enough) #bikepacking bags? Create your own!
No #gravelbike ? Borrow one!
No route? Ask your friends!
Now go out there, have fun and make memories!

Highland Heritage: Adventure through Generations

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: passion is the most powerful fuel in the world. Once you find yours, your life will never be the same. Loek Luijbregts, part of the Fatpigeon.cc crew, got his passion from a very clear source: his grandpa. It’s Grandpa Piet’s bikepacking trip through Scotland of about 25 years ago that planted a seed. And now, a quarter of a century later it’s finall...

Can you encounter wild gorilla's when #bikepacking #Uganda? According to @reddirtuganda5401 it quite often happens. Our very own Nol jumped on his @ridley_bikes with @classifiedcycling2208 and went out there to see it for himself. After a super mighty trip in 2022, riding a 10-day loop in the west of @adventuretourismug3785, we had an awesome experience. Me missed out on one very importing thin...
SPENDING A NIGHT ON THE BIKE! WHY NOT?!
มุมมอง 1Kปีที่แล้ว
We already travel the whole world with our bikes. But what do we do when we are at home? We Fat Pigeons are not made for boring loops. Why not take on a night time adventure on the bike! Instead of going to the bars. Together with Maks and Jip we started this crazy ride! #cycling #adventure #backyard #enjoylife

    Turkey is really beautiful except for the government . They are brutal because their soldiers murdered my uncle Peter who was a soldier from Cyprus and dumped him in a well between 1974-1976 and his remains were found in 2006 .
