For the next 245 years, through a revolution, the founding of a nation, the Industrial Revolution, two world wars, earthquakes and countless other events, the Mission San Antonio de Padua has remained. On the weekend of it's 245th anniversary, Huckleberry Bicycles is taking a small group of riders on a grueling 3 day bikepacking trip to the Mission and back again. We want you to join us!
Only the bold need apply. Starting in Carmel, we'll be riding out on Carmel Valley Road to the Arroyo Seco campground and continuing through the Los Padres National Forest on revered Indians Road (epic!). A total of 84 spectacular miles to the historic Mission San Antonio de Padua. The Mission itself has a great group camping area where we will camp for two nights. Saturday there are options to ride and explore in every direction, explore the Mission's grounds or both! On Sunday we'll take the paved route back by way of King City and then back inland to Carmel Valley Road.
