Western Spirit Cycling

Trip: Backcountry Hot Springs

Guide: Britney C., Franklin S.

This trip significantly exceeded my expectations. Britney and Frank were outstanding guides. I can’t believe how hard they worked each day! The food they prepared was excellent and they were great company for all of the participants. Another very positive aspect of the trip was the fantastic group of people I had the privilege to ride with. We faced some challenges—torrential rain on the first day, trees blocking the road, and two intimidating climbs. No one whined or complained. Instead, the riders supported and encouraged one another. Western Spirit Cycling has a lot of experience and it shows. This was my first Western Spirit trip—it won’t be the last!

Enjoyed both our guides. They really worked hard to make it a great trip and the meals were great. Cycling on days 1 and 3 include some extended climbs that were pretty significant - 3000 and 4000 feet respectively. You really want a full suspension bike on the day 3 descent. Hot springs were not spectacular but were there. We had rain a few days and not just Tropical Storm Hillary, plan for rain any day. Day 5 started as clear but changed to thunderstorms and delayed our fight back to Hailey. I would gladly have any of these two guides again. I am looking forward to my next Western Spirit ride.

Trip: Black Hills Singletrack

Guide: Gus K., Will C.

Our trip with Western Spirit Cycling exceeded all of our expectations! Our guides were knowledgeable, kind, and hardworking. The terrain was beautiful and challenging in the best ways, and we really enjoyed the variety of activities each day (swimming, boating, and of course, mountain biking!). Thank you Western Spirit for a trip of a lifetime.

We had a fabulous trip. Day 1 and Day 3 were NOT easy but our guides supported us in these challenging climbs. I would say day 3 was an advanced day for people without ebikes. We got lucky with the weather, enjoyed every meal and felt very well cared for. The airplane ride out was totally cool. I was nervous but in the end it was a highlight! Our pilot was right out of the movies...total pro and a character.
