Apathetic and Rebellious Teenagers

Posted by Ashley on May 28 2008 | Ashley, Family Bike Trips, Hot Deals, Mountain biking

Are there teenagers in your life? What are they doing this summer?  Will there be enough biking? Swimming? Camping and family bonding?  Are they apathetic and rebellious?  We have the cure. Here are two dates for you to consider:
July 7-11
July 28-August 1
Come join us in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Our family bike trips to the Black Hills are perfect for teenagers, ages 12-18. The riding is rip roaring fun and we camp on a lake every night.  Click here or just give us a call, 800-845-2453, for more details.
For the above dates, your kids ride for 40% off!  Pete Lindsay, one of the guides on these trips, has a secret formula for turning apathetic teenagers back into loving human beings!

Hope to see you on the trail,

Ashley

Europeans Biking In Moab

Posted by biking on May 13 2008 | Family Bike Trips, Hot Deals, Mountain biking, Road Riding

We all know that the local US economy is….well, shaky at best.  We have all heard that people in the US are tightening their belts, and will probably stay closer to home this summer to save some cash.  We still think that it is super important to leave your worries behind and have some fun regardless, and Western Spirit has some great trips this summer that don’t require a lot of gas - just leg power and a desire to have a blast.

Another thing that is happening is that Europeans are taking advantage of the weaker US dollar and coming over in higher numbers to vacation in the states!  Many Europeans are enamored with the Western United States, and rightfully so. We are too!  We hope that any of our German, French, or English friends will add some diversity to some of our summer trips.  Just go to our bike trips page to pick a trip that is right for you.
