I'm doen freemont on sunday and i heard it has a realy hard climb. Its supposed to be about 3.500 ft. and take like 4 or 5 hours. I was jw if anyone has done this ride before so i know how hard it is. Thnx :wave:
I assume you are doing the Fremont Canyon ride on Sunday with the docent? If so, the ride is really good.....tough......but good. YOu spend the first 45 mins. climbing. You basically ride up one ridge, drop down the backside of the ridge, up the next ridge and back down. Ride is about 17 miles. Yeah, it takes about 4 hrs to do, depending on the level of riders in your group. The climb up the second ridge after you descend into the valley, is the killer....long and steep. Seems to go on forever. Basically you do about 13 miles of climbing for 4 miles of DH The last DH if fun, fast and long. If this isn't the ride your are doing......disregard everything I just said. :wave: mtnbikej
It's behind the Irvine Lake/dam area in the protected Irvine Co. wilderness. Docent approved access only. Tough climb with some beautiful vistas.
The ride today was awsome i wasnt to hard but its a great work out. its definently a ride i will do again. I think evryone in good shape should try it before summer.
