Spruce Mountain Loop Mountain Bike
Details
Welcome back the burning globe after a week of dreariness with this seriously fun mountain bike ride through the best of DougCo open space. This ride is suitable for anyone with moderate mountain biking skills, or newbies who want to challenge themselves and get to the next level. Ride through cow pasture, dip-and-doddle past scrub oak, climb to pine forest, enjoy the fab views form Windy Point, and then ride dispsy-doodle down and back through a tunnel and across open space. Ride when you can, walk when you have to. Guaranteed to replenish the soul. Maybe 10 miles, with a 300 feet gain, but I haven’t measured it. For those who care, the route is in lime green on MTB Project. Fine dining afterwards at a grub house nearby. Meet at 10 at the parking lot off the SW corner of East Noe Road and the railroad tracks, in the Greenland Open Space park 10 miles south of Larkspur and five miles north of Monument Hill.
