Has anyone here done an organized trip to Colorado? I'm looking at doing a XC trip there in August.

Here a few companies that I'm looking at

Hermosa Tours (MTB)

Western Spirit

Think either Colorado Singletrack, Crested Butte Singletrack, or Telluride to Durango

Colorado is pretty dope xc. I'd say skip the tour and just rent a van and ride around Crested Butte, Durango, and maybe Fruita. If you're not coming from Denver, skip Vail and Boulder, and probably Winter Park and Colorado Springs too since they're kinda out of the way (but fun). The continental divide trail has some great sections

Bryce thanks for the suggestion but I'm looking for a trip were all I have to do is ride my bike. Don't feel like cooking cleaning or driving. It is my vacation after all. I'm thinking of going with Western Spirit. A lot of good reviews on the web.
