Summer is winding down, but there’s still plenty of time to get out and enjoy the sunny days and warm evenings on two wheels. Whether you're an avid cyclist or just enjoy a leisurely ride, we’ve put together some fun ways to make the most of the remaining weeks; think of this as your end-of-summer bucket list! And of course, our bike bags are with you for the ride, no matter how few or how many activities you tick off the list.

The List Of Fun Bike Riding Ideas:

  1. Sunset Ride: There’s nothing quite like a sunset ride, and it’s made even more beautiful with the added warmth of the summer months. It’s a peaceful way to end your day as a solo ride or even something that the whole family can enjoy. Pack a light snack in your Po Campo Vernon Trunk Bag and find a scenic spot to take it all in.

  2. Beach Ride: Head to the coast and enjoy the refreshing sea breeze as you pedal along the shoreline. Don’t forget your Orchard Grocery Pannier to carry your beach towel, sunscreen, and a good book.

  3. Picnic Adventure: Plan a ride to your favorite park or a new spot you’ve been wanting to explore. Bedford Backpack Pannier is a great option for park get-togethers, load it up with picnic treats, a blanket, and some fun outdoor games!




4. Farmers’ Market Trip Twofer: Combine your love for biking with supporting local vendors. Ride to your nearest farmers’ market and fill your Po Campo Orchard Grocery Pannier with space for fresh produce, baked goods, and flowers – and carry the Kinga Handlebar Bag to keep your wallet, phone, and sunglasses separate from the market haul.

5. Nature Trail Exploration: Discover a new nature trail or bike path in your area. The Domino Handlebar Bag is perfect for keeping your phone secure and accessible for snapping photos of your journey.



Bike Riding Tips for Late Summer

  1. Stay Hydrated: The heat can sneak up on you, so make sure to carry plenty of water. A Po Campo Willis Stem Bag is a great place to keep your water bottle within easy reach.

  2. Dress Appropriately: Lightweight, breathable clothing will keep you comfortable. Don’t forget sunglasses and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun.

  3. Bike Maintenance: Give your bike a quick check before heading out. Ensure the tires are properly inflated, the chain is well-lubricated, and the brakes are working efficiently.

  4. Plan Your Route: Whether you’re exploring a new area or sticking to a familiar path, planning your route can help you avoid any unexpected detours and ensure a smooth ride.

  5. Safety First: Always wear a helmet and be mindful of traffic rules. Equip your bike with lights if you plan on riding during low-light conditions.
