I booked a half-day guided tour because I had never been to Pisgah, and heard good things. Was not disappointed. Cypress was our guide, and gave us a taste of what the park had to offer. The downhill single-track called "Avery" was well worth the long climb! Will definitely hit up The Bike Farm when I'm back in the Asheville area!

I rented a Yeti SB140 for 2 days to ride in Pisgah while visiting family. Very helpful, friendly, responsive, and accommodating, making for a flawless experience. I was able to easily coordinate drop-off and pickup and get some great rides in while juggling family commitments. Highly recommend for your bike rental needs if traveling to Brevard.

Big thanks to The Bike Farm and Cyprus for an awesome skills lesson. I've been riding for years and have always wanted to improve my cornering and braking skills. In just one three hour lesson I found myself riding looser, faster, and with more speed and confidence. Well worth the price of admission!
