macks canyon road is my favorite thing in vegas. i said what i said
its a dirt road off lee canyon road and the turn is real easy to miss. about 4 miles of big pines and red dirt and it is like a different biome up there. you would never guess this was vegas

smells like christmas. barely anybody around. perfect on the bike, you just cruise it and stop whenever you feel like it
i do this one way more than i should

ppl act like you gotta drive out to lee canyon or red rock or whatever to ride anything in this town. and yeah those are great but thats a whole thing. gas, water, half your day
floyd lamb is like 15 min up the 95 and you can hit the trails without actually going out. its not huge but theres real dirt, actual shade (in vegas!!) and 4 ponds. you pay a lil at the gate and thats it
also peacocks. just walking around like they pay rent. saw one up on a table. fuckers own the place
not super technical, if you want to send it go somewhere else. but if you just wanna get on the bike for an hour after work and not think about anything its perfect

almost ran over a snake this morning out by the fossil beds. full brakes, back tire sliding. holy shit I haven't seen one in so long here. the snake did not care. just laid there in the middle of the trail like somebody dropped a tube
it was like 5 feet long. ok 3 feet
looked it up after and im 70% sure it was a gopher snake and not a rattler. the other 30% of me is still out there
went to get a pic and by the time i got my phone out it left
