This fall we&#8217;re taking it further: five days in Asheville, three days of riding in Pisgah National Forest, a private house that sleeps 20, and every meal covered. We&#8217;re calling it the Fall Send.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #333;margin-bottom: 40px\">It&#8217;s September 17 to 21, 2026. All-inclusive at $1,600 per person. If you&#8217;ve been looking for a reason to finally ride Pisgah, this is a pretty good one.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;height: auto;margin-bottom: 0\" src=\"https:\/\/app.omnisend.com\/image\/newsletter\/6a1603d861206a2e0e1572a0\" alt=\"Guided mountain bike trip Asheville NC - riding Pisgah National Forest\" \/><\/p>\n<p><!-- THE RIDING --><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin: 48px 0\">\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;letter-spacing: 2.5px;text-transform: uppercase;color: #c94f2c;margin-bottom: 6px\">The Riding<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size: 28px;font-weight: bold;letter-spacing: 0.5px;color: #1c1c1c;line-height: 1.1;margin-bottom: 18px;margin-top: 4px\">Three Days in Pisgah National Forest<\/h2>\n<p style=\"color: #333;margin-bottom: 20px\">Pisgah is the real deal. Technical, steep, rooted, and one of the best places to ride a mountain bike on the East Coast. We&#8217;re doing three full days out there, guided by me and the Keswick staff. This is what an Asheville MTB trip is supposed to look like.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #333;margin-bottom: 20px\">Groups are capped at 8 so nobody gets left behind and nobody gets held up. Bikes and gear get shuttled to the trailhead every morning. You show up, clip in, and go.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #333;margin-bottom: 0\">This is an intermediate to expert trip. Real terrain, real elevation. If you&#8217;re a strong intermediate or better and want a challenge, you&#8217;re in the right place. Not sure where you fall? Email us and we&#8217;ll talk it through.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr style=\"border: none;border-top: 1px solid #E8E4DC;margin: 48px 0\" \/>\n<p><!-- THE HOUSE --><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin: 48px 0\">\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size: 11px;letter-spacing: 2.5px;text-transform: uppercase;color: #c94f2c;margin-bottom: 6px\">The House<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size: 28px;font-weight: bold;letter-spacing: 0.5px;color: #1c1c1c;line-height: 1.1;margin-bottom: 18px;margin-top: 4px\">A Private Airbnb That Sleeps 20.
