On two occasions a few years back I took my bike along on a several day trips to Sedona. I did a few rides with some guys I met on TT and a few solo rides. I researched the legal OHV trails on the forest Service websites and maps. There is some legal singletrack around Flagstaff, but not a lot. I never made it that far with enough time to check it out. There is a lot more out of Prescott. Again I did make it to Prescott, but never had the time to find the cool trails in the forest just beyond town.
Actually Travace there is a bit of riding around some of the craters. When I visited the Sunset Crater there were several places where I saw riders and even a staging area or two. The Cinder HIlls OHV area is about 10 miles from Flagstaff and adjacent to the Sunset Crater National Monument. http://www.fs.fed.us/r3/coconino/recreation/peaks/ohv-cinder-hills.shtml
Although it's kind of hard to navigate you can find maps on both the Coconino and Prescott NF websites.
I have a friend in Mesa. He said riding the cinders is like riding sand. He has only been up there one time.
I'll be riding in and around Prescott area the week of may 9th.We ride the mountain,campwood,Williams,paulden valley. I like Arizona because of the easy or no riding restrictions. Seems like that is changing a bit. They now have a sticker/registration program.

Because of all the fires here in AZ, the forest service is closing places down. They just shut down the coronado National forest here in Tucson. Some forests in NM are closed down. I heard coconino is talking about closing down and same with Tonto.
