Mountain Bike Rides

There is no charge for these rides.

Are you looking to escape the heat and looking for other places to ride?

If you searched All Trails, Trail Forks and other map sites you have found that there are very few trails shown in the Jemez Mountains.
The reality is there is an abundance of riding opportunities waiting for you, but you have to know where they are.

Here are the roads on the mesas that are currently being used by vehicles.
While these are good for mountain biking, especially for gravel bikes, there are many more old roads and routes that are even more fun to ride.
I currently have over 45 route available. I plan to post them on this site, when I get a chance.
In the mean time, I can send you some upon request.

Upcoming Rides:

I will be leading free rides in the Jemez mountains again in 2026.

Next rides: After April 15, 2026

Location: On the Mesas west of Jemez Springs

Most of these will avoid the roads where possible.
You will not find these routes on any of the trail apps.

If you would like to join me, send me an email and I will send you the information for the next ride(s).

Please include your preferences for ride length, difficulty, riding style and day(s) of the week.

There are lots of options. I prefer to do rides of 15 to 30 miles, but am willing to do shorter or longer rides.

I'll do slow easy rides if there is a large enough group that wants that.
I'm also open to leading hikes or bike with a hike.

I prefer weekdays, but can do weekends, too.

If you will be visiting from out of state and would like to schedule a tour, I will do that, as long as I am available for that time.

If you are looking for a 2 hour blast downhill, this isn't it.
If you want an adventure with incredible scenery at a comfortable pace, you have found the right place.

Starting Location: Typically on the mesas at or within a few miles of FR604/607 map
Start Time: Typically ~ 9:00 MDT

Come and enjoy a real adventure.

Local Rides:

Most weekdays when I'm not in the mountains: Daisy Maze (Tijeras Arroyo).

What's is the maze? 31miles of cool single track ranging from easy to very technical-trialsin sections.

Most Saturdays when I'm not in the mountains I ride:

Winter - Sandia foothills, Placitas Open Space, Buffalo Tract or Bernalillo Watershed

Spring/Fall - Cedro/Otero, Lower Sandia East, Golden Open Space

Summer - East side of Sandias.

I usually ride at least 6 hours. You can bailout early, if you need to.
