South Fork’s Unique Outdoor Adventure: Rail Biking on Historic Colorado Tracks

Because of Colorado’s rich history of mining and rail transportation, the Centennial State is home to countless railroad tracks, many of which are no longer utilized. In true Colorado outdoors fashion, one company has implemented a fun and unique activity that uses some of these old railroad tracks.

Rail Biking is a Fun + Unique Activity in Colorado

The company, known as Revolution Rail Co., has numerous locations throughout the country, including one in the tiny town of South Fork, Colorado.
