Bicycling is a popular past time and several posts on bicycling in and around the area were previously posted, see
here and
here. In addition, several visiting bike tours have stayed at the estate while passing through the area, for example see
here.
Recently a group of guests wanted to ride bicycles during their stay, but the closest bike rentals were in Silver City. A trip to Silver City by the event coordinator (Michelle) solved the problem but something closer to home was needed. So in response to this popular recreational activity and to accommodate guests the
Painted Pony Resort now has 4 bicycles available that guests may rent during their stay if they wish to enjoy some local bike rides. These
SR SUNTOUR bikes are available in 3 sizes, a 17', 2 - 19", and a 21" bike are now on the estate. These bicycles are designed for off road usage with 26" x 2.0" tires and front shock absorbers. With 7 gears any grade or hill should be easily attacked and conquered including ranch roads on the estate as well as trips into the Chiricahua Mountains. For a nominal fee the whole family can get out for some riding on and off the estate and enjoy "seeing" the area from a different vantage point.
