Bikepacking to World Champs: Day 1 of riding in Ireland
Day 1 from Dublin to Newry exceeded expectations! After landing from an overnight flight, and a few technical hiccups, the crew was off to ride! Windy narrow roads, pastries, beach riding, rain storms, rainbows, green hills, and more rain... it was an excellent day of riding bikes! reminding us that in bikepacking the journey is the gift!
Maghalie is racing the Marathon MTB and the E-MTB World Championships in Scotland. But, to make the most of the trip, her and her husband David (and their two friends Caitlin and Franz) are riding to the race. Their bike packing journey will take them from Dublin in Ireland, to Edinburgh in Scotland over 500km of Irish & Scottish road and trails, before racing her two events.
