Description for Desert Classic
Desert Classic is just an all around fun trail, however it always seems to be packed with people so avoid it on the weekends, you will be off the bike constantly due to hikers. The ride should be fine for most intermediate level riders, there are a few places that can get a bit technical but overall you will be on the bike most of the time.
Directions to Desert Classic Trailhead
head up towards the holbert trail at dobbins lookout or buena vista. once about half way up mountain after a long sweeping hairpin turn to the left on the road, notice a bench and enough room to pull out off the road to the right. you'll see it.

This definitely one of the best Single Speed courses I've ever been on. Also, I highly recommend this for "couples" learning how to mountain bike, as it's friendly for all skill levels.

This is my home trail. I love this trail you have nice steep washes. Some secret trail areas with a boulder. The trail gets more technical as you go west. Nice offshoots for more challenging ride like the heli-pad. This is a great trail to learn on. You get almost every type of terrain but nothing too crazy. I still have a couple of sections to clean. I have been only riding 8 months but this is my goto trail to get back to basics and have fun.
