While A-Basin doesn't rent ski bikes or teach skibiking, they are very skibike friendly. Anything you want to hit is fair game as long as it isn't roped off. The terrain parks are open to skibikers too.
The new lift at the base area makes things much easier than the old fixed grip Exhibition chair lift. If you don't have your exit strategy worked out for the upper lifts, the lifties don't mind slowing it down. Those fixed grip chair lifts are kinda wacky and they really don't like holes punched in their ramps either.
This video is by Lenz Sport Skibikes from back in 2007. The frames have changed and are now even more chair lift friendly. The skibike riding boundaries have moved on considerably too.
A blast from the past - skibiking at Arapahoe Basin.
