Pickup/Dropoff

Night Before Options

If you need a “Night Before the Ride” pickup, select Extended Play 1 ( early pick-up) for an additional $20. Unfortunately we can’t guarantee this (based on when the rider before you returns the bike), but if at all possible, we will try to have your bike set-up between 5:30 and close (6pm), the night before. If you would like this guaranteed, please select a 2 day demo instead.

Return Options

If you have a daily rental, and can’t get your demo back by 5:30, we ask you be here with the bike at 9:00am sharp, so we can get the bike ready for the next rider in a timely fashion.  Please book this as part of your reservation under the Extended Play 2 option for $20 extra.  We will have to charge you for an additional day if you are later than 9am.

Downhill Bikes

We do not demo DH bikes and do not allow any of our trail bikes to be ridden at North Star Bike Park.  North Star Bike Park, though a fun place, is a DH specific bike park, and they rent the appropriate gear there – e.g. downhill bikes, full face helmets, pads, etc.  There are plenty of outstanding singletrack trails in the Tahoe/Truckee area to ride, check out our Trail Info tab for more details!  If you take our trail bikes to North Star Park, you will be liable for the retail cost of replacing the complete bike.
