We had an awesome experience on our mountain bike tour with Jason. We booked the intermediate ride, and it was perfect because there were options to skip sections depending on your comfort and skill level. Jason did a great job coaching us through some of the more technical areas and made the ride both fun and confidence inspiring. The route and scenery were incredible, and the whole experience was well worth it. We'll definitely book another tour the next time we visit.

The best experience I did my first drop jump learned how to maneuver and manage the trail to maximize joy and maintain safety. This first e bike tour has made me want to really invest in this sport and I will definitely be booking with Rush again.
We had a great time. Views were awesome. We had a mixed group of beginners and advanced and we had a great time!
Huge fun and massively exhilarating. Our guide was full of the joy of life and pushed us but within safe limits. The equipment was fantastic and the views when we stopped were stunning . Would love to do it again
