READY, SET, RIDE THE RED! Sunday, September 19
Mark your calendars now for our annual mountain bike ride in the Red Desert on September 19. This year we’ll cover new terrain along historic trails and the Continental Divide of the northern Red Desert.
Following the Seminoe Cut-off of the Oregon and California National Historic Trails westward, the route will start at the Warm Springs Pony Express Station three miles south of U.S. Hwy. 287, just east of Sweetwater Crossing. After 16 miles of fun two-tracks, we’ll turn east onto the Continental Divide Trail with an optional additional loop into the St. Mary’s Peak area for the energetic. Passing Weasel Springs, we’ll drop into Coyote Gulch. We’ll have many opportunities to view pronghorn, elk, wild horses, raptors and
historical features.
Ride the Red will be 36 miles long this year, with additional mileage options available.
Consider joining a group of friendly bikers on a leisurely ride through the scenic Red Desert. Snacks and refreshments will be provided at aid stations and a beautiful T-shirt will be given to all participants.
Pre-registration is required.
To help cover our expenses, the registration fee will be $20.
