Elko, NV ride suggestion?
I'll be in Elko, NV next Friday evening and would love to get in 20-30
miles. Can anybody suggest a route for me? I'll be on my way to Taho for the ride there on Sunday. Anybody going to be there? Thanks, Joe |

Elko, NV ride suggestion?
Thanks Bill,
I mapped out 15 miles one way and it's about 850 feet of climbing. Just about perfect for what we want to do. I'll post the ride after we get back.

This takes you up Lamoille Canyon into the Ruby Mountains. The road ends at a trailhead. If you have the time it's worth hiking up to Liberty Pass and back, about 7 miles round-trip. It's a slice of the Sierras in the middle of Nevada. -- Bill Bushnell http://pobox.com/~bushnell/ |

Elko, NV ride suggestion?
As promised - my wife and I rode the Lamoille Hwy last weekend. It was
a nice warm-up for our Tahoe ride. I've posted the track, elevation profile, directions and comments at: http://www.saltlakecycling.com/rides.../lamoille.html Thanks for the suggestion, Joe Bill Bushnell wrote: In article om, wrote: I'll be in Elko, NV next Friday evening and would love to get in 20-30 miles.
