SUMMARY:RED RIDGE SHUTTLE
DESCRIPTION:Dropping…\n“RAD RIDGE”\nLooking for a backcountry\, big mountain ride with epic views\, thousands of feet of descending\, and adventures such as stream crossings\, raw cut trails\, and diverse terrain? HG finds creative ways to ride the best trails… \nJoin us for a shuttle ride to the top of Mt Lemmon to access the epic backcountry trail\, Red Ridge. This ride starts at almost 10k feet elevation\, and finishes at 2800k feet at the 50 Year trail. Steep descents\, technical switchbacks\, one long grueling climb\, and finishing at the iconic 50 year trail system\, this is THE ride in Tucson! Red Ridge requires advanced fitness and bike handling skills. More about Red Ridge… \nRED RIDGE TRAIL Now officially part of the infamous Arizona Trail. This previously rehabbed trail was a downhiller’s paradise. The Bighorn Fire of 2020 created challenging maintenance conditions. But the TORCA crews\, along with the USFS crews\, have worked to open this trail back up. While trail development is on-going\, this raw trail has opportunities for wide sight lines and steep ridge lines. This trail provides fast and loose turns with proper elevation drop (descends 3500′ in 5 miles). Check out the dirt surfing on the backside of Lemmon! Red Ridge connects to other segments of trail in the 50 Year area\, for a total of 20+ miles of riding and takes most riders 4-6 hours. \n**The Red Ridge trail is challenging to ride and route find – consider hiring an HG guide for a seamless experience** \nhttps://www.trailforks.com/report/919715/ \nShuttle will depart at 730am promptly from Golder Ranch Road Trailhead near 50 Year \n**ALL RIDERS REQUIRED TO SIGN HG’S ONLINE WAIVER: \nhttps://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5a53a10fe249d/web/ \n**Conditions change VERY quickly – HG reserves the right to cancel this tour if weather and safety are factors**

SUMMARY:AZT SHUTTLE
DESCRIPTION:ARIZONA TRAIL – BELLOTA SEGMENT\nThis ride is one of Tucson’s best\, and arguably most under-rated All-Mountain trails. Back-country and rarely ridden\, you likely won’t see another user on this section of the AZT. Plenty of fast descents with chunky switchbacks\, but climbers will enjoy the challenging terrain. \nTo access this trail\, you can either ride 12 miles up Redington Pass road… dodging UTV’s and beer cans\, or hop on HG’s shuttle to get you to the good stuff safely. This ride is approximately 8-13 miles\, and takes 2-3 hours\, depending on your experience and pace. Various routes can be taken back to your car\, we recommend using TrailForks to see your options! \nTHIS IS A NON-GUIDED\, SELF-SUPPORTED RIDE. Please be responsible for bringing your own supplies (first aid\, tire repair kit\, food\, 100+oz water\, tools). \nSHUTTLE DEPARTS from Early Bird Bikes (8969 E Tanque Verde Rd) at 8am. \n

SUMMARY:Red Ridge Shuttle
DESCRIPTION:Dropping…\n“RAD RIDGE”\nLooking for a backcountry\, big mountain ride with epic views\, thousands of feet of descending\, and adventures such as stream crossings\, raw cut trails\, and diverse terrain? HG finds creative ways to ride the best trails… \nJoin us for a shuttle ride to the top of Mt Lemmon to access the epic backcountry trail\, Red Ridge. This ride starts at almost 10k feet elevation\, and finishes at 2800k feet at the 50 Year trail. Steep descents\, technical switchbacks\, one long grueling climb\, and finishing at the iconic 50 year trail system\, this is THE ride in Tucson! Red Ridge requires advanced fitness and bike handling skills. More about Red Ridge… \nRED RIDGE TRAIL Now officially part of the infamous Arizona Trail. This previously rehabbed trail was a downhiller’s paradise. The Bighorn Fire of 2020 created challenging maintenance conditions. But the TORCA crews\, along with the USFS crews\, have worked to open this trail back up. While trail development is on-going\, this raw trail has opportunities for wide sight lines and steep ridge lines. This trail provides fast and loose turns with proper elevation drop (descends 3500′ in 5 miles). Check out the dirt surfing on the backside of Lemmon! Red Ridge connects to other segments of trail in the 50 Year area\, for a total of 20+ miles of riding and takes most riders 4-6 hours. \n**The Red Ridge trail is challenging to ride and route find – consider hiring an HG guide for a seamless experience** \nhttps://www.trailforks.com/report/919715/ \nShuttle will depart at 8am promptly from Golder Ranch Road Trailhead near 50 Year \n**ALL RIDERS REQUIRED TO SIGN HG’S ONLINE WAIVER: \nhttps://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5a53a10fe249d/web/ \n**Conditions change VERY quickly – HG reserves the right to cancel this tour if weather and safety are factors**

SUMMARY:RED RIDGE SHUTTLE
DESCRIPTION:Dropping…\n“RAD RIDGE”\nLooking for a backcountry\, big mountain ride with epic views\, thousands of feet of descending\, and adventures such as stream crossings\, raw cut trails\, and diverse terrain? HG finds creative ways to ride the best trails… \nJoin us for a shuttle ride to the top of Mt Lemmon to access the epic backcountry trail\, Red Ridge. This ride starts at almost 10k feet elevation\, and finishes at 2800k feet at the 50 Year trail. Steep descents\, technical switchbacks\, one long grueling climb\, and finishing at the iconic 50 year trail system\, this is THE ride in Tucson! Red Ridge requires advanced fitness and bike handling skills. More about Red Ridge… \nRED RIDGE TRAIL Now officially part of the infamous Arizona Trail. This previously rehabbed trail was a downhiller’s paradise. The Bighorn Fire of 2020 created challenging maintenance conditions. But the TORCA crews\, along with the USFS crews\, have worked to open this trail back up. While trail development is on-going\, this raw trail has opportunities for wide sight lines and steep ridge lines. This trail provides fast and loose turns with proper elevation drop (descends 3500′ in 5 miles). Check out the dirt surfing on the backside of Lemmon! Red Ridge connects to other segments of trail in the 50 Year area\, for a total of 20+ miles of riding and takes most riders 4-6 hours. \n**The Red Ridge trail is challenging to ride and route find – consider hiring an HG guide for a seamless experience** \nhttps://www.trailforks.com/report/919715/ \nShuttle will depart at 7am promptly from Golder Ranch Road Trailhead near 50 Year \n**ALL RIDERS REQUIRED TO SIGN HG’S ONLINE WAIVER: \nhttps://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5a53a10fe249d/web/ \n**Conditions change VERY quickly – HG reserves the right to cancel this tour if weather and safety are factors**

Bikes continue to bring them together and have been a driving force in their long time friendship. \n \nKimber Burger \nKimber got her start riding dirt bikes as a teenager\, and found mountain biking while travel nursing around the country. She landed in Tucson and attended an HG women’s clinic on Mt Lemmon\, where she excelled quickly and became a poster girl for nailing the fundamentals!
