Now that things are getting back to normal after all the COVID restrictions, is there anywhere to store bikes overnight? Normally we store them in the condo we rent, but this year we are in a different one and they are very specific about having no bikes in the condo. Is there anywhere that will do overnight storage? I don't mind paying a fee for secure storage, I just don't want to get a big fee tacked onto our condo if they find out we had bikes in it.
alpenglow?

Does anyone know if there is a shop that will service a Fox DHX2 coil? I have a very small amount of oil seepage coming out of my compression/rebound dials. It’s not dripping or anything, at the end of a days worth of riding it’s got some oil film on it.

Looks like this is going to work out for us. Thank you for the tip!

Long shot here, but does anybody have a hotel that allows dogs booked for Crankworx (Aug 5-15) that would want to trade for a loft suite at the Mountainside Lodge? Big room (592sf) with sauna, fireplace, etc about 150m from the lifts.

Kayak said the hotel was dog friendly, but they pulled the information from the other side of the hotel which is managed by a different company. I can cancel, but rates have gone up significantly since we booked.

I was at mountaineside lodge the last 2 weeks and there were several dogs in the hotel! I think it's dog friendly!

https://www.meliussuspension.com/ Not sure how quickly they can get someone in though.

Lines all last week were 20-40min. Probably 35min ave. Didn't seem to matter weekend vs weekday. Sometimes the gondi was faster, at least it had shade.

I was there on July 5th and wait times for futz were at least an hour in the “singles line”.

Why do they stop running the gondola partway through the day?

Is anyone else in favor of Vail Corp limiting how many lift passes they sell each day? I don’t think I’ll be in any hurry to go back until lift lines don’t have such atrocious wait times. I was there the week of crankworx in 2016 and did so many laps I could barely walk the next day (and I was in much better shape), this year I rode Rupert and Boney Elbows the day after riding on the mountain.
