Things to be mindful of:
The temps will be cool in the morning and warm up so be sure to hydrate well the days leading up to the trip. When the conditions are dusty at this location, please be mindful of air filter condition. We will put new ones in each day but encourage you to space out to prolong filter life and limit the possibility of sucking dirt.
We leave each morning once everyone has had breakfast and gets out the door. Typically, on the first day we are riding by 10am. We won’t be banging pots to get you guys out of bed but we generally are up a little after six to get coffee and breakfast going.
We will have lunch out on the trail and will provide sandwiches and breakfast each day. Dinner is not included in the tour but we will all go as a group. We have an experienced group of riders so this tour should be a blast!
