Overlooking the Prescott Valley, Trail 533 barrels down Mingus Mountain, leaving dust-clouded wide open, high speed segments in it's wake. The trail travels through pine forests that share common ground with cactus and agave, with an occasional rock garden thrown in the mix. It's as if at times Trail 533 can't make up it's mind if it wants to be fast and smooth, or loose and skittery. The trail keeps riders on their toes, faces plastered with adrenaline fueled grins. Trail 533 is a good introduction to the loose and sometimes rocky terrain on offer here, and can be enjoyed...

Tucked away in the Zuni Mountains just outside of Gallup, NM, the Quaking Aspen Trail meanders through lofty Ponderosa and mixed tree forest. When exploring the trail in the descent-oriented, counter-clockwise direction, the trail dives into twisting single track, through flower-specked meadows, wrapping and whisking down the rolling contours of the arid, mountainous landscape. The Quaking Aspen Trail offers a bit of variation of terrain throughout the duration of the trail. Your tires will traverse segments of slick rock, snug corners, and plenty of rocks and natural rollers to pop off of and play around along the way. There are...

With a moniker in honor of the previous rattle-adorned residents that were relocated! The Snake Charmer Trail is a sanctioned, near mile long, progressive trail that is full of character and a diversity of options. With average trail grades of 20% or more and quite the mixed variety of nature-inspired features and riding surfaces, Snake Charmer Trail is similar to a schizo on a good binge. The trail is scattered with the unexpected, but entertains you throughout the entire ride. Your tires slash bermed corners, traverse rock-armored singletrack, launch off boulders and ledges and roll over bridges of natural stone...

Colt and Jessee take off for their first leg of their journey around North America and begin the adventurous task of filming and documenting the continent’s vast network of gravity fed mountain bike riding locations for the Gravity Ride Guide. Winter weather leads the duo into the warmer climate of the Southwest where they meet new friends and leave tracks across many of the trails in the heart of urban Phoenix, AZ, rustic Sedona, AZ, the unique terrain of Moab,UT, and the razor sharp rocks of Boulder City Nevada’s, Bootleg Canyon. "This is the product of our first time working...

After a spell of bad weather Colt and Jessee soak up some spring sunshine in Santa Barbara, CA before heading upward and onward into Oregon. The pair kicks up some dust and even a little snow in Bend, OR then head out to Lyons, OR to check out the lush freeride area in Shellburg Falls and end this round of Oregon riding with the much awaited Black Rock Trails in Falls City, OR. Amongst waning days of June, the twosome start their Washington riding on the often muddy, rooted slopes of Port Angeles.

July starts off with a bang as Colt and Jessee celebrate their country's independence in the Issaquah, WA area shredding the local biking hotspot at Duthie Hill. Creeping closer to the Canadian border, the twosome visit the sprightly town of Bellingham, WA and put some rewarding trail time in at Galbraith, part of the Chuckanut Mountain Range. The ending weeks of July find the duo having a blast riding in the outdoor recreation capitol of Canada, Squamish, B.C. August greets Colt and Jessee with sunshine and warmth as they make their way east to Kamloops and Harper Mountain.
