I'm looking for folks interested in exploring trails around Banff on a multi-day self-supported bikepacking tour from June 9th to June 14th. My dates's are pretty firm, as I'm in town for an academic conference and flying out the 15th. I'm hoping to watch the divide tour folks take-off or at least be salmoning upstream relative to them on their first day as I'm rolling back north to Banff.
I'm hoping to find singletrack, but I have been told there isn't much near Banff. Inevitably gravel and paved roads will be part of the ride, hopefully more of the former! So mileage is tough to predict. I'm in good shape and ride strenuous, slow-moving singletrack with expert racers around 150 miles/week. 80-100 miles of moderate incline gravel road riding in a day seems reasonable to me.
