Pistol and “The Loop”

River Mountains Trail Loop

Heidi Faller Posted onMarch 7, 2021March 7, 2021 Boulder Canyon, Mountain Biking, Nevada, Road Riding Leave a Comment 291 Views

Heidi Faller Posted onOctober 25, 2020October 25, 2020 Arizona, Road Riding Leave a Comment 254 Views

Sure, most cyclists have heard of Mt Lemmon in Tucson and plenty, including us, have ridden up the challenging mountain. But ask most cyclists and they probably haven’t heard of the lesser known Mt Graham located about 70 miles...
