Hey everyone,
Figured I’d share something we’ve been building down here in Antigua 🇦🇬(the Caribbean one… not Guatemala 😅)
My husband and I own a small craft brewery here called 2SIX8 Craft Brewery, and over the last few years we’ve also been building and riding a pretty fun network of MTB trails around the island. What started as riding with friends has slowly turned into us putting together a small MTB retreat experience.
My husband Rory is a former MTB Olympian who represented Antigua, so bikes have always been a huge part of our lives. Between the riding, the brewery, good food, cold beers, and wanting to show people the side of Antigua most visitors never really get to experience, this just felt like the right adventure to build.
The idea is pretty simple:
Ride good trails, eat good food, drink good beer, and enjoy island life with a small crew of like-minded riders.
We’re putting together a 7 day / 6 night all-inclusive MTB retreat this FALL for small groups (6–8 riders). Daily guided rides, villa stay, beach days, local food, brewery hangouts, in-house chef, wakeboarding, paddleboarding, hiking, and generally just showing people the side of Antigua most visitors never see.
All our packages are customizable for your length of stay and budget — from low-key grassroots adventures to high-end luxury experiences.
Still grassroots and figuring it all out, but we’re really excited about it.
Happy to answer questions if anyone’s interested or has done similar MTB destination trips before 🍻🚵♂️

Dude!
I’ve spent so much time there kiteboarding, had no idea there was a MTB scene.
Talking to my friends most of the locals are on hard tails? Would a 165mm full suspension be too much?
Cool! Would love some good riding in a carribbean destination!
It looks a little tamer than I’d want but maybe thats just the video? I understand the terrain also dictates some of the design but I like gnarrrr
