2025 Swift Campout: Grizzly Cycles Campout, Bakersfied CA

Swift Campout is the annual, global call to go bike-camping to celebrate the solstice. For the eleventh year in a row, adventurers will pack camp gear on their bicycles and head out on June 21st and 22nd, 2025 to kick off summer with a bike-overnight. 

Swift Campout is an ode to spending the longest day in the saddle, to the shortest night under the stars and to the stellar community that rallies to share this stoke. Join us!

We’re pleased to introduce you to Grizzly Cycles 

Our Swift Campout this year promises an exciting adventure through the stunning mountains north of Bass Lake, CA, covering approximately 90 miles with around 8,000 feet of elevation gain. This marks our fourth year undertaking this challenging route, and it continues to be a rewarding experience for all participants. We’ll be dispersed camping along the way, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the area. The route offers a balanced mix of roughly 50% dirt and 50% pavement, providing a diverse riding experience that tests both endurance and versatility. We’re looking forward to another memorable trip filled with adventure, camaraderie, and the breathtaking scenery of the Sierra Nevada.
