Welcome to our blog

Our vision is to share riding loops, routes, and out-and-backs for anyone new to mountain biking in the Treasure Valley. We classify riders by their climbing abilities: new riders can climb under 250', beginners can handle 250-750', and intermediates can tackle 750-1500' of elevation gain. Each blog post will provide the distance and elevation required for each ride, along with our suggested direction for the best user experience based on skill level. Join us as we explore the beautiful trails of Boise and help you build your mountain biking skills, one ride at a time.
