About Pannier

Unhurried, since 2012

THE TEAM

>>     Stefan Amato     <<
FOUNDER, BRAND & HOST
stefan[at]pannier.cc / @stefanamato

Stef started Pannier back in 2011, whilst working as an architect in London. He is the current lead at Pannier >> looking after the Pannier Shop, Journal (curating and editing trips, and submissions), and hosting / guiding our Tours and Expeditions.

Out in the field, he’ll likely be chatting about maps, ensuring each bikepacker’s bike and kit are packed properly, garnishing gnocchi, pouring drinks from great heights, swimming at any opportunity, and manning the watermelon.

Base // Castleton – Peak District, UK

Are you a seasoned bikepacker, or guide where we should definitely be offering a bikepacking trip? Or, just interested in getting involved somehow? Please get in touch with Stef – stefan@pannier.cc
