I have a few days in CO Aug 18 - 22 to ride. DHR is already in Denver, and I will be flying in to pick up the bike and head for the mountains. I have never actually ridden the resorts there, but know that Keystone, Sol Vista, and Winter Park offer lift-served DH riding.
So, what are the pros/cons of each of these resorts? Should I hit all three, should I pass on one to focus on another, or should I ride somewhere other than those three?
I like flowy/jumpy trails, but prefer to ride techy singletrack (i.e. I prefer Original Sin over A-line, but still enjoy riding A-line).
Another consideration is that my wife will be coming along too, and though she has never ridden DH bikes at a resort, she wants to try. I saw the Green World trail at Winter Park which looks like a good intro, but am interested in thoughts on that or other beginner trails as well. When she is not riding, some alternatives to mountain biking would also be good at/near the resort. Suggestions?
Thanks.
