I love riding, be it easy, hard, long, or short. Two wheels and a place to ride is all I need. Period.
After an entire day of riding all over the mountains and both loops, both ways... the GPS said a top speed of 82.6mph and 56 miles traveled at an average of 19.4mph. So, Moving relatively quickly through sandy trails. Some parts are rocky but never that challenging. You just have to pick yer line and rail it!
The shadow mountains have alot of, "choose your own line" riding, Which I like too. Lots of space, no rules. 46,000 acres of free riding is nothing to laugh at. You can camp anywhere.
El mirage has a fee to get in which is steep for a single day($15). The week($30) and year($90) prices are much better. I have a year pass and live less then an hour away. I've been like 10 times this summer.
There are fences, but only fence off more of the same terrain. I GUESS THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER!
Anyways, INVITE IS STILL OPEN AS ALWAYS!!! Next week is looking really good for me. LET ME KNOW!!!
