Question

I'm leaving to Vegas August 16. Can I rent a mountain bike and ride on the mountains or how does it work in Vegas? Please help me out. I love riding and really want to ride in Vegas. Near the strip preferably...

Answer 1

Your best bet is to rent a bike and go to Red Rock Canyon which is about 20 miles west of the Strip. Its a BLM, Interior Dept park that you can ride through, about 5 miles up and down and around, very scenic. But go early, it has NO shade and it does get hot. try this web site: http://www.escapeadventures.com/

Or try dirt Bike:

Answer 2

Bike riding near the strip may be difficult as it is crowded nearly 24 hours a day. I would suggest calling the concierge of your hotels for recommendations.

Answer 3

Frankly you're stuck in Las Vegas or North Las Vegas or Henderson- all an same metroplex in spite of the undeniable fact that. There aren't any actual cities or cities outdoors of Vegas for a lengthy lengthy thoughts. residences are tons immediately in spite of the undeniable fact that. To get a photo of ways Vegas is laid out, seem at Google maps or Yahoo, and do a satellite tv for pc view. Pan it out to work out the completed area, and also you'll see truly all of us lives contained in the tremendous gravel pit, (it is what we call it) and the cities i discussed above are purely adjacent suburbs. there's a city over in the route of vacuum dam, in spite of the undeniable fact that that is not very tremendous and seems somewhat run right down to me. the different cities of any length (Bullhead city/Lauglin operating example) are properly over an hour or extra away.
