It's Awesome Here. Get a Room.

‍

There is finally no denying that it is summer. ⅓ of the Bike Monkey crew is in Ketchum right now scoping the 2025 and 2026 routes. Here’s a report from the field:

“It’s 89, bright, clear, and the blue is one of those blues that feels almost fake. The kind they use in logos, the kind that has a Pantone #. It smells like water and Ponderosa and fir trees and sun on grass. Wet rocks steam and sparkle after the 8-minute thunderstorm clears.”

You’ll be here soon. Make sure you’ve got a room. The roads and landscapes you’ll traverse during Rebecca’s Private Idaho on our beautiful public lands are vast. Lodging in Ketchum is not. Bike Monkey has secured room discounts at several partner establishments, including The Limelight Hotel, which is not only a spectacular property in the heart of downtown Ketchum but also happens to be central to RPI World and where it all starts for this whole shebang. But you still gotta book early to nab one of these great deals. Check out all of the options here. Be decisive. Get ‘er done. Then go back to visualizing the route, the creeks, the meadows, the uplift that is Rebecca’s Private Idaho.
