Rist Canyon Bottoms
Classic low-key Western gravel loop. Reservoir Ridge, to the dirt at the bottom of Rist. All the mountain views with little climbing ;-)
The Stats:
Distance: 20 miles
Paved: 20%
Climbing: 900feet
Notes: Many options for more dirt off of Poudre Trail and spurs like Michaud trailhead.
Refills: You ride by two great cafes! Me Oh My Coffee and Pie and Howling Cow by Noosa. Get a root beer milk latte at Howling Cow.
Tires: Pretty much any tire will get it done, if you’re adding trail bits, choose a WTB Resolute or Nano for the most fun!
