Unfortunately, my family and I were very disappointed with our experience with New Venture Cycling. Staff were generally unprofessional and at times were even rude to park staff and other visitors, making portions of the trip awkward and not enjoyable. There are better options in Estes Park for your cycling/outfitter needs.
Kerry and Brandon, their knowledge is awesome. The bikes are set to your preferences and they make sure of that before they are loaded into the van.
This was a great ride with very knowledgeable and friendly guides. I will ride with them again.
I had a great time on the ride. We started at 12,000 feet and finished back at the shop. Super awesome staff! They had some really cool stories and knew a lot about the area. I will definitely do this again! Along the way, you'll make several stops with amazing views. The whole experience was great and you get a free waterbottle with your ride!!!
What a great experience. My wife took a chance on this one, not knowing if riding bikes from the top of the continental divide would be too scary. Not to worry. She had a great time, and we got to spend a great morning in the mountains. As an unexpected bonus, Brandon and Carey (sp?) were outstanding tour guides. They gave us interesting information at each stop and really took care of us. We highly recommend this on your next trip to Estes Park. If you re wondering about kids, we had a family on our tour. They had a 12-year-old and a 14-year-old, and they all had a great time. And don t worry about it being to strenuous. Except for about 1/4 of a mile, it s ALL downhill.
Our experience was less than stellar with New Venture Cycles. The operation overall was pretty unprofessional and the guides were disinterested most of trip. Overall very disappointed and just not a very well run outfitter.
These guys are less than professional. Guides are pretty apathetic and borderline unsafe. Not to mention, they're rude to every other park visitor they encounter, which makes this experience awkward and not all that fun. Find another outfitter in RMNP.
Fun time with good natured, knowledgeable tour guides from start to finish!
We had an awesome time doing trail ridge road east as a day trip from Denver. Brandon and Kerry were very kind and hospitable. They provided ample snacks, additional warm clothing and a lovely lunch. The tour was fantastic with really interesting, detailed knowledge of the local area, geology and wildlife. We d recommend doing a trip with this company without hesitation if you are in Colorado.
Very friendly and knowledgeable. The ride itself went very well and any issues were taken care of quickly and professionally. Highly recommend checking them out if your in town
Such an incredible experience. We are cyclists, so did not know what to expect. There is very little cycling in the traditional sense, but experiencing the park on a bike is so so worth it. We loved all the incredible history and geology lessons and had such a blast. Highest of recommendations.
Kerry and Brandon are the best! A must-do while in Estes Park!
My wife and I are fairly experienced cyclists, and we went on the Trail Ridge East route. It was the most spectacular ride I have been or will be on. It is for pretty much anyone who can stay vertical on a bike--they have everything you need to have the best time. Brandon and Karen are two of the nicest people you'll meet, and their passion for people and Rocky Mountain National Park really shines through.
A great experience. The friends at New Venture Cycling are easy to work with. We had a large group and called several weeks ahead to book a day to do the tour. From the safety instructions to the actual downhill biking, everything was fun and smooth. The little educational stops were amazing and kept things interesting. Wish we had brought a GoPro to film the ride. Shout out to Nick, our guide, who was awesome. Thanks for the great memories.
Awesome experience, great instructors with lots of cool knowledge about Colorado, well worth the money (I'm always cheap but I think this was worth it)
Highly recommend for folks new to Rmnp or people like myself who have been to the park many times. They take you above the tree line and you basically hold on and ride down the entire time. Wonderful hosts Brandon and Carrie feed you knowledge, snacks, and make you feel safe and informed. My favorite visit to the park and I've been there a dozen times for long hikes, short hikes, and have spent time in the back country.
The tours are fun and informative, and the company really focuses on safety and comfort.
Amazing Experience! This is a MUST-DO for RMNP. The owners / guides could not have been more gracious - comforting & knowledgeable. Did Trail Ridge East Tour in September of 2018. Fall Foliage was beautiful. Road bike experience is not necessary. Guides made you feel very comfortable and safe. We stopped a numerous picturesque overlooks to take short breaks and learn about the geography / history of the Park. Don't be intimidated by the 26 miles, it is all downhill! P.S - Ask the male guide about anything bugs/trees/fungus if you are ready to be blow away with Entomology lessons!
