Mountain Bike Nevada Day 7 & 8 & 9 - Great Basin Bicycles Reno Nevada - Mountain Bike Trails

Mountain Bike Nevada is a Mountain Bike ride across the state of Nevada from Cal-Neva Hotel & Casino on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe, on the border of California and Nevada. The 11 day mountain bike ride starts there, and ends on the Utah - Nevada State Line in Border Town on Highway 50.
11 Days
533 miles
38,000 ft of climbing.

This video is day 7, 8 and 9
Day 7 started at Potts Hot Springs, and was supposed to be a 50 mile day. Due to torrential rain, thunder, lightning, and hail. We all cut the ride short, and called it a day in Antelope Valley.

Day 8 was also supposed to be a 50 mile day, but due to the short day 7, we returned to Antelope Valley where we cut day 7 short, and continued to Green Springs. So, we made up the 20 is miles, and turned day 8 into a 78.5 mile day.

Day 9 was spectacular. We left Green Spring, an old abandoned ranch on a natural cold spring, and continued east through Cathedral Canyon. This canyon was spectacular. We then ended in Preston, NV.

I will have about 5 or 6 videos to connect the state from end to end. So, this is 3 of 5 or 6.
