1/2 Day Marin County
Marin is considered the birth place of mountain biking. Let us craft a 1/2 day ride for you or your group, tailored to your liking - novice to expert and everything in between. Travel time to trail: 45 min.
$150 - $250 per person
Santa Cruz Full Day Adventure
Santa Cruz is probably our favorite place to ride. Just up from the Pacific Ocean, lie dense Redwood forests with twisty, loamy, flowy goodness to explore by bike. Travel time to trail: 90 minutes.
$250 - $395 per person
Sonoma County Full Day
To be candid, mountain biking in wine country is better than the wine. More of an intermediate to advanced ride, with engaging trails, rocks, and roots to challenge you. Travel time to trail: 60 minutes.
$175 - $300 per person
Urban Mountain Biking
Believe it or not, SF has breathtaking off road riding. Granted, you have to mix it in with some pavement, but it makes for a special adventure, right out our shop's front door.
$100 - $175 per person
So...How Does This Tour Thing Work?
We like to start and end tours from our our trailside clubhouse in Marin, The Lodge. This allows us to set up your demo bike under ideal conditions, and make sure you have everything you need before we hit the trail. Taking time to set fork and shock pressure, tire pressure, and fit, make a big difference. We have helmets, and most popular clip in pedals, as well as platform pedals. Once the bikes are dialed, we'll head out. Time permitting, we prefer to have a post ride libation. We are flexible on timing, and try our best to schedule your tour around your schedule. More questions? Call or e-mail us - we love to talk about riding.
