You can't rent one that looks like this, and don't be stupid enough to try to steal one. Though most bikes aren't locked up, there's an understanding among locals that allows this to work -- don't take what's not yours.If you're looking to explore some rocky trails, you can mountain bike. Since September is a quiet tourist time, most trails are empty, said Bryan Turpyn, an avid mountain biker who moved to Crested Butte 10 years ago from upstate New York.Turpyn wouldn't disclose the local hidden treasure trails (townies can be a bit protective), but there are plenty of trails for all skill levels in the Elk Mountain range.
