Montrose, Sidewinder

taosgsr · 10-02-2012, 07:24 PM

Hey Im looking for some info on the Sidewinder trail. Im thinking of riding there next week. Ive heard they have been making it into a loop? The BLM site still shows it as an out and back. Anybody know about the loop? Im guessing it would be around 40- 50 miles as a loop? Legal? any info would be appreciated

It parallels Peach Valley road so you can make it whatever kind of loop you want.

shearboy2004 · 10-02-2012, 08:54 PM

You can make it a there and back on single track , great trail , when you going to be there?

taosgsr · 10-03-2012, 05:23 PM

Im trying to decide Im thinking either monday or tuesday. Most likely riding alone (even though my wife hates when I do) but so far no takers. Are you open for a ride either day?

Ride Red Rocks trail heading north, the come back on sidewinder, makes for a nice loop but you'll miss the last few miles of sidewinder unless you want to ride it out and back. I'm free this weekend if you are so inclined, I charge 2 beers for the full tour

Nice vid, looks like a great ride.

That's 3 beers worth of value right there, now at the price of only 2 beers!

Now Greg, you know you are supposed to send all strangers that you never plan to meet in person the other way..North on Sidewinder south on red rocks

Heard anything lately about an endurocross training area out there?

You're correct, what was I thinking!! I call that the "Mann" loop! Not sure on the endurocross area, I haven't been out there all summer but it is starting to be that time again. Hope to see ya in a few weeks amigo.

The "real" Mann loop is Amasa, Pritchett, BTR, Flat Pass, Poison Spider, GBR, Rusty Nail, Metal Masher, Gemini, Sovereign, Bovine, Juniper, Enduro, Guy's, Hell and back, half a beer then pass out.

Thats a real "mann's" loop. I'll be out there for the last week of october.

Peach Valley is too small, just a warm-up really.
