Katrina Hase: Bikepacking the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route
Manage episode 412299920 series 3441782
Want to know what it's like to go bikepacking on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route? Well in this episode guest Katrina Hase shares her stories and experiences of doing just that.
In 2023 Katrina decided to take on the goal of riding the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route as a way of celebrating both her 50th birthday as well as 10 years of sobriety. She had discovered the sport of mountain biking later in life - joining in with her son who had taken it up and school, and it didn't take too long before she was hooked.
It was the decision to buy a gravel bike that opened up the world of bikepacking to Katrina. She could put gear on it and go on a real adventure
This was a solo journey but the highlights of the trip for Katrina were overwhelmingly the people she met and befriended along the way. I really got the sense of the value of community which Katrina spoke about and those encounters at the Lama Ranch, Brush Mountain Lodge as well as the kindness of strangers were the real highlights. Having her friend Traci join her for some of this journey was also very impactful for Katrina as well.
