Quick Spin at Fantasy Island D/2/10

to 9:00 AM MST

Fantasy Island Mountain Bike Park (North)

1 going (limit: 7)

Ride Description:

Join us short spin around Fantasy Island on Bunny and Snake Dance. It's a nice ride for beginners or those who want an easy morning mountain bike ride.

This is a D paced ride meaning the final average should be between 8-12 MPH, though the pace during the ride may exceed that occasionally. It is considered a social ride though there is very little opportunity to ride side by side.

Details:

We’ll meet at the north side of Fantasy Island at the new Ramada by the start of Lone Cactus and ride south on the connector to Bunny Trail West. Our first regroup on the ride will be on the south side where the trails meet. We’ll continue on Bunny until it reaches Snake Dance.

Then we will ride on Snake Dance, switching to Bunny’s Revenge when we get there. We’ll regroup where Bunny’s Revenge gets close to Bunny Trail East then continue on Bunny’s Revenge back to Snake Dance.

We’ll transition from Snake Dance to Bunny Trail East and follow it our third regroup will be at the SHARP where there are restrooms. There is construction at the SHARP so we will ride to The Connector. Then ride east to the paved path which we'll follow to the Sharp.

After that we ride out on the path back to The Connector. Finally, we’ll turn north on Bunny to get back to the start.
