Summer is in full swing in Taos and somebody turned off the sprinkler. A sudden dry spell has prompted fire restrictions in the area, so check first when camping as this means no open fires in the woods. Hopefully monsoons will come around and cool things down and moisten it up. When the rains hit be sure to have rain gear handy. Storms come in the afternoons and bring strong but brief showers. If you're above 9,000 feet this can mean hail, so make sure you can cover exposed skin. All off road
trails are dry and open, with the Northside at TSV opening
July 1st. This is some of the most scenic riding in New Mexico.
South
Boundary Trail in all its glory has been cleared and is cool and
beautiful
up high. The Woodpile Trail is looking incredible with lush grasses
and
wild flowers in bloom. The Gorge rides, like Horse Thief, West
Rim, and
The Rift Valley, are good in morning and evening hours as it can
get hot Roadies can look forward to the Enchanted Circle which is a local favorite. Looking for an extra challenge? Go to the Mora Loop, more difficult and scenic than the Circle this one is a hidden gem in northern New Mexico. The ride to Taos Ski Valley including the Hondo-Valdez-Seco Loop is great right now as the Rio Hondo is exploding with run off. Road rides are not immune to monsoon so bring proper gear. It's the winds right now that can hamper a good road ride, so starting earlier is better than later. Contact us
for ideas for your next road or off road adventure. We can
help you put together multiple trails and loops for a customized
length
and effort. We also have detailed maps of the most popular mountain
bike RIDES Currently shop rides are sporadic due to a heavy work load. However, we do have an email list if you would like to join. This includes shop specials, goings on in the Taos cycling scene, and group rides. Check the Taos weather. Check the Taos Ski Valley weather.
