I have never gone on one of their road trips but have used them several times for mtb tours. Excellent outfit. Beware of gaining weight no matter how much you're cycling.

I've also done a mountain bike tour with them - very nice tour.

I've ridden some of the roads that are in the tour and plan do some others this summer. There is some serious climbing in that one.

Wow - those are some GREAT backroads that trip would take you on. Very cool. And better still, you get to go to the bakery in Freestone!!! :D:D

I actually thought about doing it - if they had a summer one. Summer vacation can be long...

I was looking at rides to do this year, and they are on my list. I was toying with a Yellowstone ride in the fall, but I'm not sure that's going to work out. My France trip in May might take all my bike trip budget for the year.

I've heard good things about Western Spirit, though.

WS is a good outfit. I know the owner and a few folks who have guided for them. They definitely treat their clients well.

Sounds like a fun trip, even with all the climbing! :rolleyes:

Wouldn't a TE member tour be fun?? :D
