ORDA Mountain Biking Season Officially Concludes Oct. 10
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. A long, glorious mountain biking season will draw to an end on Monday, October 10, according to a release Wednesday from the New York Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA).
Mountain biking, conducted by High Peaks Cyclery in Lake Placid, has been offered on the alpine trails at Whiteface as well as the cross country trail network at the Verizon Sports Complex since May.
Whiteface will operate Friday through Monday (Oct. 7-10), while the schedule at the Verizon Sports Complex offers this activity Saturday and Sunday (Oct. 8-9).
These venues present mountain biking in different settings. At Whiteface, riders can use lower elevation trails as well as a more strenuous experience by taking the Cloudsplitter gondola to the Excelsior trail and others.
The Verizon Sports Complex presents an idyllic experience over some gentler terrain.
However, at this time of year with fall foliage nearing its peak, both locations offer brilliant leaf-peeping to accompany the riding.
To enhance the end-of-season setting, High Peaks Cyclery at Whiteface is having a sale of this years rental bikes. In addition, other equipment and accessories are priced to sell, including several giant warps and some specialized big hits.
For more information on mountain biking at both facilities and these sale items, please call 518-523-3764 or log on to www.highpeaksma.com.
