What happens when a bunch of mountain bikers with no bikepacking experience get bikepacking racks and a route to follow? All the gear and no idea, right? What could possibly go wrong?
We sent Lia, Murray, Tom, and Campbell on a two-day bikebacking adventure to ride the Fainters Track from Falls Creek to Mountain Beauty. This 40km ride can be knocked out in a day, but what’s the rush? Instead, this motley crew chose the scenic option of spending the night at the Towanga Huts before finishing off the rough and technical ride to Mount Beauty.
With a surprisingly robust container of taco seasoning, a not so robust water filter, and only one forgotten sleeping pad, at least one of this quartet of bikepacking newbies lived to tell the tale. Come along on their adventure from Falls Creek to Mount Beauty on Fainters Track.
