| no partners | | Lucero trails in Estrella Mountain Ranch are great for both hiking and mountain biking. My neighbor Craig joined me this morning for a mountain bike ride on the awesome roller coaster like trails of Lucero. We started at Ladera Park which has running water toilets and a paved parking area. It's a short ride up the decomposed granite Hillside trail to Copper State Crosscut access. Followed that clockwise around to the big powerline tower where we picked up Upper Recluse to the top/saddle and then down Tarantula. South/east on Coyote Creek back around to the beginning of Tarantula and back up to the saddle and down Black Widow to Thrasher around to Coyote Creek. North/east on Coyote Creek with a side counter clockwise trip on Scorpion Loop and continued all the way round to Sidewinder. I had planned on Sidewinder back to Copper State Crosscut, but Craig said that he really, really, wanted to make the climb up Nitro Knoll, so we rode that over to Copper State Crosscut instead. Took Copper State Crosscut back around back to where we started and DG Hillside back to the van. Lots of trails for just over 5.5 miles, but they are just tons of fun! It was real nice to get in a ride, come home and wash up my gear and the bike, jump in the shower, and be sitting in my chair in time for the Showcase Showdown  |
