Where to Ride?

4. Expeditions
If you travel to a certain region, accommodate
there and carry out daily bike tours, then you can say
that you are on a mountain bike expedition. This is very
similar to a free climbing or other mountain expeditions,
at least on the organizational side. An MTB expedition can
be quite wild and adventurous, if your base is for example
in the desserts of Morocco, and quite civilized and
comfortable, if it is in a hotel in the Austrian Alps.
The main problem with expeditions is
information, i.e. where to go, what is the terrain like,
where to ride, where to spend the night, the water and
food, bike service, etc. The Internet is today the best
way to get information. There are quite a lot of websites
like the one you're looking at right now, that provide
sufficient information (see Links).
And there are tourist resorts all over the world waking up
to see the opportunity in attracting guests with offering
some descent off-road riding as well (more).
