Arrive early to join mountain friends for a happy hour bite and bevy at the Mineshaft. Bring your beverage to the presentation room at 7:30pm.
Join Kelly Chapman for an inspiring presentation about her 2024 bikepacking journey through the rugged Tian Shan and Pamir Mountains of Kyrgazstan and Tajikistan. Embarking solo on this 1800 km adventure, Kelly navigated breathtaking high altitude landscapes, remote villages, and challenging terrain, discovering the resilience of body and spirit. With striking photos and captivating stories she will share the highs and lows of her journey, from crossing 4000 metre mountain passes to connecting with the warm hospitality of the region's people. Whether you are a seasonal cyclist or simply an adventurer at heart, this is a talk you won't want to miss.
