Get your wooly tights ready, because on the shortest day of the lunar year, when the earth’s southern pole reach its maximum tilt away from the sun, Mont is organising its first social bike packing ride.

Over Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st of June, we invite riders to join us as we ride out of Canberra and into the bush. The plan is to start in Canberra, at the Mont Shop, and ride out to Blue Range Hut Campground. Over approximately 55km, you will see the best of Canberra, before heading into the wilderness for the night. A chance to stargaze under the clear winter skies while sitting around a campfire awaits before we ride back into Canberra the next morning.

Following on from the great winter solstice rides she’s organised in the past few years, Steph Skinner (Canberra gravel riding heavyweight) will be giving a talk on one of her recent multi-week bike packing trips in the evening, and the legends at Omafiets Bicycle Shop will be around for some mechanical expertise.

This ride is a chance to test out bike packing for the first time, spend a weekend with your riding crew, or meet up with the rest of the Canberra bikepacking community. It is a fully self-supported event, meaning we will provide a suggested route, and have booked out the campground, but you will need to bring everything you require to spend a weekend out in the bush, including food, camping equipment, and clothing (a gear list will be provided). You will also be responsible for your own safety.

Happy to be joining the Canberra Bike packing community and the crew from Mont Adventure Equipment in Canberra for a mid winter solstice bikepacking overnighter on June 20/21st. A spirited cold weather jaunt from central Canberra out to Blue Range Hut Campground, 55kms of beautiful Canberra trails await. Jump onto the link in our bio to register for this free event !

Introducing Cam’s Bombtrack Hook EXT. What started as a nicely spec’d stock build has become a deep custom beauty. Before Cam built the bike he painstakingly stripped the paint completely and repainted both the frame and fork. Before clear coating the frame, he teamed up with @hotfootcycles and the @bower_bikes workshop to do some hot work. Between moving the chainstay and seatstay bridges for added 700C tyre clearance and brazing on extra seatstay and downtube bottle bosses, this thing is one of a kind. Shout outs to Josh and Ben at the Bower for their incredible efforts getting this done before a weekend bikepacking trip! Contact them for any hot work you’ve been dreaming of or frame repairs you might need 🤓

Cam also customised the bike with a pair of Curve Walmer bars, a beautiful Sim Works Caroline stem, a trusty Brooks C17 saddle, and a PNW Rainier dropper post. He also swapped in some 48mm GravelKing slick tyres for racing in the European, Swiss and World messenger champs later this month.

If you want in on your own Bombtrack Hook EXT, we have a few of the last bikes left in the country on clearance. Get ‘em before they’re gone!

Even super heroes need a bit of help sometimes ! You may have seen the quite amazing Catman who just finished an epic adventure walking more than 6000kms across Australia pushing a wheelbarrow.

After the great folks at Curve cycling helped combine the well travelled wheelbarrow with an amazing new custom bike, Catman got in touch here in Sydney to say the setup needed a little bit of tweaking to help redistribute the more than 50kgs of cargo he is carrying !

We were more than happy to help with a setup of OldManMountain racks and Ortlieb Back rollers, yellow of course !

Never fear the mighty trailer is still coming along for the ride, just now with a bit more of a balanced weight distribution !

Joseph picked up new Kona UnitY and grabbed a couple of choice upgrades to this well specced touring machine. The VéloOrange crazy bars and Ergon grips give you loads of hand positions for big days of riding while the Cane Creek Thudbuster seat-post gives additional comfort at the rear. It’s headed off for a multi month cross European bikepackingjourney ! The new Kona UnitY bikes have been proving popular with bikes heading out this week in small, medium and large. Stocks are extremely limited so if you want one of these unique rigs then get in touch asap !
