We're excited to announce that we have partnered with 3parentesi, the founder and organizer of the European-based Bicycles Adventure Meeting (BAM!), for the BAM! Campfire 2021 event. This partnership will also see us collaborate to create an all-new additional event in the future.
Together with 3parentesi, we will be offering a few lucky riders the opportunity to take part in an extraordinary, private bikepacking adventure in conjunction with the BAM! Campfire event that will kick off Friday, June 10th. Information on how to win entry to this exclusive event will be announced in the coming weeks. Taking place around the Lausen Refuge in the middle of the stunning Lessini Mountains, BAM! Campfire will feature the stellar terrain and roads of this iconic area of Italy, and will enjoy the evening campfire event to share memories with fellow riders from all across Europe.
"We are proud to join 3parentisi for the BAM! Campfire,” says Anael Renault, European Events Manager for Felt Bicycles. “BAM! is one of the most famous events for cyclists looking for unforgettable adventures on their bikes. Felt Bicycles has always supported cyclists who push past their personal limits wishing to explore what lays beyond the horizon. Supporting a major bikepacking event like BAM! allows us the opportunity to more close interact with the cycling community, share in the event’s emotions with them, and better understand their experiences and expectations to help us in our quest to create the best bicycles in the world.”
The event will provide cyclists the opportunity to see Felt Bicycles’s Gravel and Adventure collection in action, which features the Breed and Broam models.
“We are happy to welcome Felt Bicycles into our family of partners,” says Andrea Benesso from 3parentesi. “Felt Bicycles’s range of bikes corresponds perfectly to the interests of our event’s attendees with versatile, simple, and fun bikes, which allows cyclists to take all the necessary gear for a great bikepacking adventure. We also love the family spirit of Felt Bicycles!”
Interest for the BAM! Campfire exceeded demand, selling out in less than 24 hours. However, a limited quantity of entries should be available soon. So be sure to follow both BAM! and Felt Bicycles on Instagram for the latest updates: @feltbicycles and @bameurope.
