Monday, Kay and I joined four of our close friends for a Beavers Loop Trail ride. All six riders were in the 60+ age range and we still had a blast. Half of the group got to the top without even breathing hard while the other half (my half) needed a few extra stops to catch our breath (I think my half had more fun). We still had the time of lives. Each time I do that ride, I am reminded of the incredible design and construction work by Joey Klein, the IMBA team, A-Basin's Trevor Mathes and the A-Basin Trail Crew. I am not aware of another purpose built mountain bike trail this high in the alpine. Riding the BLT is an experience like none other. If you are mountaing biking type, this ride needs to be near the top of your wish list.
