We will depart in trucks at 7:00am to the San Rafael Staging area. The ride starts by cutting over the "reef" and then turns to single track. The route follows the famous "Orange" trail, "Green" trail, "Blue" trail and "Red" trail-all great single track. Next riders have the choice of taking the difficult "Five miles of Hell" (about 8.5 miles) or a bye pass. We will plan a lunch break at the end of the "Five miles of Hell" where the groups rejoin.
After lunch the route cuts through Taylor Flat and McKay Flat passing several Buttes. As the ride nears the end of the San Rafael Swell it joins the "Behind the Reef" ATV trail. For the next 22 miles the route will cut up and down, and in and out of the canyons of the reef (also known as the swell). The ride ends back at the trucks. We will then pack up the trucks and head to our next motel.
