Grueling central Az ride.. 2 wr's

Az Tom & i went on a little ride yesterday.. pretty tough.. had lunch at 5pm. More pics & report upcoming.

Nice!

I have two cousins that live in Flag. We've been through Sedona a few times while visiting. Nice place. The environment is fairly similar to home (El Paso), but with more veg. I might be doing a long trip to Flag over the fall. Any places around there you'd recommend for short day trips on a bike?

Lots of cool places to ride around here.. might consider sheeps bridge if you're here late in the fall.. some pretty tough singletrack is on the north of the mountains, & some other on wing mtn & by the flag airport. check on advrider & TT for flag riders & rides.

Mayer, Bodie mine, Crown King. 6/12/10

We met in Mayer on Friday at 8:30. It was freezing! I had on mesh jacket & pants, & my fingers were numb riding through the pines. It did warm up some as the day progressed.

It was easy gravel for the first part.. down Poland road unti it became very rugged.

Here's a short clip on the post Poland road. We criss crossed a creek a few times.. nothing too deep, but the rocks are always slippery & tricky. We were going up & down all day.. some of the hills were pretty steep.. they seemed to get rougher & steeper further into the ride.
