Ramble Ride
Open
We travel through this raging landscape—each storm offering awe at its end. ⁠ ⁠ There are lessons to be learned in nature. There is value in discomfort, fear, and uncertainty. Absent, you lose knowledge of the splendor. ⁠ ⁠ -after the storm in the Medicine Bow National Forest, Wyoming.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #rideyouradventure⁠ ⁠ #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

We can't guarantee you'll see wildlife, but we can say you have a great opportunity. Moose are always what folks want to see, and our early summer rides and fall rides are the best chances. ⁠ ⁠ What else? Lots of deer, antelope, coyotes, fox, and badger. More rare, but sighted over the years; wolf and bear. But don't worry about those last two: they are off always in the distance and will likely see, smell or hear you long before you them. ⁠ ⁠ Maybe we should have a Ramble Ride bingo. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #rideyouradventure⁠ ⁠ #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

Our Fall Ramble is one of our favorites. Warm days, cool nights, clear skies, and only one camp. And don't forget about those Fall colors. ⁠ ⁠ One camp rides have a different vibe and give just that little bit of extra time to get to know each other, and enjoy the experience. ⁠ ⁠ But don't think not moving camps means less riding. At 250 miles of gravel riding, and 22K feet of climbing for the event, you're still going to get plenty of challenge. ⁠ ⁠ Join us for our last ride of 2022.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #rideyouradventure⁠ ⁠ #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles⁠

You have more. Ramble Rides are fully sagged, but that doesn't mean you have a free ride to camp. Our philosophy is "you'll ride more than you think, but never more than you can." On one ride, we had a rider who wanted to get in. They were uncomfortable on the climbs and lost contact with others. But I could tell the issue was more mental than physical. "You have more," I told them at every meeting. "You think so?" "I do." And so, all day, we danced this dance: me passing them, them cursing me for not letting them in, me saying, "you have more. Just to the top." And when they got to the top, they always mustered to continue. For three days. At the end, after hugs and high-fives, came the "I didn't think I could do it." On the Ramble, we always know that you can. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

Four days riding in the Black Hills of South Dakota, searching out new routes to ride.

Why is our Fall ride one of our favorites? Because Populus tremuloides. Did you know that the Aspen tree (Populus tremuloides) is among the largest organisms in the world, according to mass? It's true. All these trees here are interconnected and one living thing. And the Pando grove in Utah is the largest of all. But don't worry, you'll still be more than impressed by our Colorado friends. In addition to Fall colors, the ride is a little more relaxed since we stay at one camp, and campfires with the cool nights are just a bit more communal. The days are warm for riding and clear, so the views have just the right amount of clarity. It's also a favorite because staff can usually sneak out for a ride with guests too. There's still time and space to join what could be the icing on your summer cake. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

Not every Ramble gets a shot to go up to the Fire Tower. It often has a snow cover for early and late season rides as it's the highest point on our rides at just under 11K feet. But if you get a chance, you should go. For the views alone. This view looks East. You can see many roads we ride on and North Park off in the distance, lying at the foot of the Front Range. The trip adds roughly ten extra miles to the day, and we always make it optional; it's a long day even without. But if you're feeling spunky or can recover at lunch at the turnoff, it's a chance to get a view of the Medicine Bow, Zirkel Wilderness, and surrounding area that few folks get. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

What sets a Ramble Ride apart from other rides is our locations. We work hard to find the roads less traveled and opportunities to experience a bit of solitude. With challenging routes and incredible scenery, there's much to experience on every Ramble Ride. Take the time to join us on our last Ramble this Fall. There's still room available, and it's an experience you won't soon forget. photo: @ztburton #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado#panaracer #ibiscycles

What a fantastic July Ramble. Great group and weather; though Wyoming did show up one night for a light show 🌩. We had a special guest on the ride, giving him a first-hand experience of what a Ramble is. Want to know a 2023 location? If you know who this is, you’ll figure it out. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking #adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling #rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

Traffic on day two of the Ramble. Summer in Wyoming means Ramble Rides and Cattle Drives.

Headed home. The last bit of the ride always goes a little slow as riders soak up the remaining views and each other's company.

I first heard the phrase “don’t chick it up” from @knuffer. It's the event equivalent of an industry used to pinking and shrinking products. So our women’s rides are challenging with long miles and lots of climbing at altitude. We’ve never shied away from hard routes on our rides to make it easier. And so, while there is a huge benefit to more beginner-friendly events, we’ve always catered more to riders like Kimberly, who can outride others regardless of who they are. For riders like Sara, getting ready for her first 150-mile race. For Aimee, eyeing her next big bikepacking trip, and all the rest who choose the women's ride for the camaraderie and fraternity of other women while still pushing their limits. This isn't the first Ramble where we come back to the world to learn of challenging news. Rambles are, for a time, a warm bubble where only the riding and kinship matter. And after spending five days with these ladies, riders and staff alike, where they shared ideas, talked about books, and experiences while taking care of each other and building each other up, I conclude that the world would be a better place with women in charge. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking #adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling #rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

Back to civilization, there’s always time to capture one last image. A super fun and close group for this year's Women's ride. Typical for a June ride, we had a little of everything weather-wise. But always smiles and good times. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking #adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling #rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

June is a magical time on the Rambles. When the weather cooperates, that is. We've had rain, wind, and 4" of snow. But this year? It looks perfect. I rode some select bits of next week's Women's Ramble Ride yesterday, and it's #supergreen. Lots of baby antelope and five-foot-tall moose calves on wobbly legs. The roads are still hard-packed from winter, and the dandelion line the way. It's going to be a great trip. There's still time to join us! #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking #adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling #rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado #panaracer #ibiscycles

June always bring questions as riders start thinking about Rambles. We have folks of all fitness levels and experience so often, answers are a teaching opportunity. Today we answer why you should wear padded shorts or bibs. Linked in bio. #rideyouradventure #rambleride

We're excited to have been chosen to be included in this month's @5280magazine issue with a feature on the Medicine Bow and Routt National Forests. @tesswstrokes wrote a great piece on her first Ramble Ride. We spend a lot of time here, with our events, but also riding all there is so we can keep evolving and adding to the adventure. It's a lot of love, effort, and miles to come up with what we think are some of the best and most challenging routes out there for any event. Give it a read, then come out and experience it for yourself.  The story is linked in our bio. #rideyouradventure #rambleride #rideshimano #shimanogravel #bikepacking#adventurecycling #gravel #gravelbike #explore #travel #cycling#rideyourbike #adventurebybike #travel #shimanogrx #colorado#panaracer #ibiscycles

Hello again Ramblers! It’s @michelleh_CO here for one last time to give you a final push to join us for the Women’s Ramble Ride June 22-25. What could be better than RIDE. EAT. SLEEP. RIDE. EAT. SLEEP RIDE. EAT. SLEEP. RIDE. with no emails from work or duties to take care of at home. Whether you’re a new gravel rider, experienced bikepacker, ultra distance racer or somewhere in between the Women’s Ramble is for you. No need to buy any fancy gear, just grab the tent and sleeping bag you have, throw it in a duffle and join us. If you have any questions at all, lots of information about the route, what to pack and what the food is like can be found on the Ramble Ride website. I really hope to meet lots of new friends in mid June on the Women’s Ramble!

The Women’s Ramble 2022 is just over a month away June 22-25 and hopefully the Ambassador posts over the past couple of weeks have inspired you to join us! What makes this Ramble better than the rest is that its all about the LADIES!!! Sure hanging with the guys for a weekend ride can be fun, but imagine the joy of riding casually (or not so casually!) through the beautiful Colorado gravel roads with new friends then sitting around the fire at night sharing a beer and telling stories of the days ride with a group of inspiring women who all share a passion for getting out there to camp and ride. I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for new riding buddies and I’ve been so inspired learning about the other Ambassadors that I can’t wait to meet them and the rest of the Ramblers this year. There’s nothing better than completely unplugging for 4 days and just thinking about eating, sleeping and riding your bike. So grab a friend or join us solo, we’d love to hit the trails with you!
