not sure qiite where you'll put them.!!

re: can u take bikes on the lifts

The gondola might have a summer bike loader attached, but to be honest im unsure.

re: can u take bikes on the lifts

thanks Neil, the gondola would probly be the best lift because of where it goes too, fingers crossed then !
we'v just bought a house down the road and are moving out next month so im really hopefull that there is a bit of a mtb scene in borovets, i saw some on the snow in the winter going over the jump in front of the rila, think they were part of the wednesday night instructor show
have you been there in the summer ?

cheers

The only lift open in the summer is the Gondola.

re: can u take bikes on the lifts

Have not mate. But knowing the bulgarians they'd let you stuff your bike in their or tie it to the side.
Looks good in summer, pretty good weather and lots of mountains

re: can u take bikes on the lifts

aaahhhhhhhh, interesting, thanks Bob. Makes sense too, no point running any of the others then. have you been there much in the summer?

re: can u take bikes on the lifts
