What is BIKERAFTING? | Alpacka Caribou
Bikerafting with a packraft is an adventure sport that combines cycling and rafting. It involves using a lightweight inflatable raft, called a packraft, which can be easily carried on a bicycle.
You can ride your bikes to a waterway, inflate the packraft, and then paddle through rivers, lakes, or other bodies of water.
This versatile and compact equipment allows bikerafters to seamlessly transition between biking and rafting, making it an ideal choice for exploring remote or challenging terrain.
It offers a unique and thrilling way to access otherwise inaccessible wilderness areas, combining the thrill of biking with the serenity of floating on water.
Bikerafting is an absolute great way to bikepack. if you're into bike packing then with a packraft you can really go and stay wherever you like.

Thanks for this overview and tutorial, especially the bike breakdown and mounting properly on the raft. When I watched the videos of your and Simon's bike rafting trip, I wondered about the frustration and faff factors with the bike breakdown and putting it back together. Great advice, too, on bailing out if needed and adjusting the paddles so as not to hit the mounted bike and gear.

[@ImJeffRoe]

Really great video. Thanks for making it.

[@Vildmark]

DIY Packraft Atlin Model is designed for bikerafting with a larger square nose.

[@rawr7640]

There is a german company called current-raft, they have also specific bike rafting model(s).

not putting a dirty oily bike on my gorgeous Anfiio packraft :P

[@gimblethoroughfare]

Clean it first

[@ianmcaleer4820]

Mr packrarft is always clean 😊

[@spencegoddard8456]

Iron Raft say their rafts were designed to carry a bike, have you tried them? Looks very similar to the MRS micro raft

[@Vildmark]

No I’ve tried tried one of those out. I just think if you’re carrying weight which is hanging over the sides of the packraft (ie a bike) it needs to be wide at the front and have an up turned bow to take the weight.

@@Vildmark makes total sense. At 6ft 2 and 100kgs I'm already finding it difficult to choose the right boat. You've used the microraft large, would I fit in that? Loving the content, thanks, working my way through your videos

[@Vildmark]

@spencegoddard8456 yes that seems a good option.

[@Pgd10020]

I just hide mine in the woods at the bottom

[@dougwilson4183]

How about the mrs microraft for bike rafting?

[@Vildmark]

Never tried a bike on it. I know some people who do but I prefer to use a packraft that has been designed to carry a bike.
