Bike Tours & Levels


Graded tour levels ensure we have an experience for people of all ages, abilities, backgrounds and interest. Most of our tours have the flexibility to be at two levels depending on the rider's choice.

Easy - specifically designed for entry level and very relaxed riding to allow you to gain experience and confidence for on-road touring.  Requires a minimum baseline of fitness, exercising once a week prior to the tour with preferably one 20 mile trip under the belt.

Moderate - expectation that of prior touring experience in moderately hilly terrain of gradual inclines of less than 5%. Avoidance of long steep inclines are easily done by riding in the van. Requires an average level of fitness, exercising two-three times a week prior to the tour and several 25-35 mile rides under the belt. .

Challenging -designed for the more experienced rider who wishes a good workout including sustained inclines of over 5% grade.  Requires a good level of fitness exercising three-four times per week prior to the tour and comfortable with 40 - 60 mile days.

Extreme - For those who like steep terrain and long distances over 60 miles a day. Requires a very high level of fitness.  Dakota Bike Tours does not offer this level at this time.


  Bike Tour Services - All Inclusive


Tour the Badlands on bike in 2007! Our tours are designed with optional distances each day ranging from 25 to 50 miles per day; our riders simply choose the length they want to do each day. However, the Badlands & Devils Tower Leapfrog Tour is longer with 40-60 miles per day. Our philosophy is to cover less linear distance and spend more concentrated time in smaller areas.
