Super rad singletrack on the ridge just east of Glendora Mountain Road. Starts off as a fire road, then narrows and you go through narrow tunnels of all kindsa plants. Lots of ruts! Keeps winding down for a long time (really damn fun), some jumps, then dives down into the canyon near turn one on the frontside of GMR, where there are a lot of small rocks, and a bunch of streamcrossings.

Some data:
Distance:
7.75 Miles

Elevation:
Minimum-1325 Feet, Maximum 3441 Feet
Gain-930 Feet, Loss-3020 Feet

Nice ride Taco.

What's the Sunset Peak/Ridge road look like now? Snow? That's some good fun.

Thanks

The Sunset Peak road is snow free as far as I can tell. I hiked it a few months ago. I hiked the north ridge a few years ago. It might be above my skill level.
