1627.0. "Sunday River Mountain biking..." by SALEM::SHAW () Fri Jul 06 1990 12:14

    
    Hi all, 
    
     I was at my local bike shop yesterday, shopping for a new mountain
     bike.  the old one got run over by a pickup truck, while I was
     riding it. I am back from injuries and very anxious to get out.
     At the shop I ran into a brochure from Sunday River. 
     Did you know that you could use the ski lift to go to the top 
     for a downhill adventure? Anyhow they are offering a $99.00 package
     which inculdes a night at the lodge, two breakfasts, two lift tickets
     and trail use and an italian dinner for Saturday night.
     My question is, has anyone been to Sunday River for biking? Do
     you know of other areas that offer similar or one day packages.
     Are there any other ski resorts closer (southern New Hampshire)
     that offer lift service for bikers? I think I heard last winter
     that Cannon might be offering ride up their tram. 
    
     Thanks in advance

    Hi Geoff,
    
    I just called Loon, Yup! they have mountain biking too. Apparanetly
    Sunday River is the only one that accomodates a lift ride up with
    your bike for those of us that are kamikazi downhillers. 
    Loon also has the coffee shop on top of the summit open for snacks
    and on weekends they have pancake breakfasts.
