Although mountain bikers are often (and controversially) banned from using trails on both public and private lands, ski resorts have welcomed them with open arms. This is the first book to highlight, in depth, the growing popular sport of mountain biking on ski resorts. In spring, summer, and fall, more and more Northeast ski resorts are opening once-empty trails, lifts, and facilities to recreational bikers. There's something for everyone: for the adventurous, there are steep downhill runs that go on and on; gentle cross-country trails and woods roads for the more mellow of spirit; instruction for beginners; and professional racing for experts and spectators. Plus mot resorts offer rental bikes and safety equipment, and pro shops for repairs and service. In addition, all the amenities of a ski resort are here as well: spectacular scenery, comfortable lodges, daycare for the kids, evening entertainment, and gourmet dining, for the vacationer--or the day-tripper. The Mountain Biker's Guide to Ski Resorts tells you how to choose the right resort for you, and how to get the most from it. Driving directions, prices, bike shops, activities, and nearby attractions and accommodations are summarized for each resort, as well as helpful phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and Web sites. In addition, there are complete directions for riding the most enjoyable and scenic trails, and for linking them together into a full day of mountain biking. Featured resorts include: Gore Mountain, New York; Killington, Vermont; Loon Mountain, New Hampshire; Sunday River, Maine; Bromont, Quebec, and many more.
