Tour Description
When Bob started the Beer & Bike mountain biking was one element of cycling he kept for himself and only offered limited day tours in Colorado that featured mountain biking. Over time the business moved more toward road and gravel riding. We are pleased to announce that we are dipping our toes back in to the world of mountain biking in a most epic way. Mountain biking in Norway. With the help of local guides and fellow passionate mountain bikers we have developed an incredible ride that includes everything we love. Bikes, Beer, Trails, music and culture. This trip is for everyone who wants to have a blast riding during the day and laughing until the sun sets…or doesn’t. It is Norway in the summer after all.
