That is my favorite trail in Arizona. Bombing done the other side is the best part!!! Although it gets a little dangerous after it rains because all the terrain is loose. I've peeled out so many times and nearly gone over the edge! Still, its soo worth the fun!
@321snbify Yes, the climb from the "lost Dog" trail head is the easier of the two directions. Starting at the Sunrise trail head starts climbing right out of the parking lot. It is worth the climb up.
@dgriffinm this trail is located on the south end of the Mcdowell Mountains. There are two trailheads, the West trailhead is around 128th street North of Shea, and the East trailhead is off of 139th, and Via Linda (I think). check it out, it is a blast.
@grootif I completely agree! I broke my ellbow 2 months ago and I am counting the days to return and ride these awsome bikes. check this video on YouTube "Shokef's Ghost" it's not far from where I live the rider use to run a bike store in my town. I wish I could ride like you guys but I am too old for that style :)
@mahmudaz you got that right! it is my favorite bike so far. I also have a 2010 Specialized Enduro, which is great, but the Roscoe does it all and more!!
@mahmudaz yes, it sure does. It gives the bike the confident feel of a slack head tube angle, with the quick steering of a steeper head tube. It feels like it has more than 5.5" of travel, but it pedals quickly like a shorter travel bike. I was never a Gary Fisher fan until I tested a Roscoe, now I am hooked.
