An Introduction to Skibikes

In Colorado, people are becoming more aware of skibiking as more skibikers take to the slopes. A few years ago most skibikers were asked about their bikes in the ski lift line and out on the ski slopes.

While visitors to Colorado ski resorts may know more about skibikes, there are still many more people who are curious about them. Some want to know how they are controlled while others are trying to figure out if it is their next winter sport.

To educate people about today's modern skibiking and traditional 'foot ski' skibikes, I wrote up an article in 2009 entitled "An Introduction to Ski Bikes and Board Bikes". It gives a brief rundown of the sport and skibikes.

The article addresses the frequent questions skibikers encounter while out on the slopes. After talking to people who've struggled with skiing or snowboarding, they're ready to dump it and just take up skibiking.
