I've raced True Grit three times. The only time I've ever enjoyed Stucki Springs is when I went out for a fun weekend there. It's the hardest part of the race, but the one of the coolest rides in the area. For all the reasons that you described.
Bear claw poppy (err stuckey) into a head wind isn’t a whole lot of fun while racing. Payment for the super fun three fingers of death into pump track... bear claw poppy. On the whole St George is super duper fun
Asuna,......I am considering moving to St. George for the mountain biking. But I want to ride mostly flowy, fun trails with some pedaling and climbing. Are there may like this there, or are they mostly black diamond descending kind of trails? I am in my early 60's and dont really need all the black diamond stuff anymore. More concerned with maintaining fitness.
@@tonybasoni8443 It might be too late, but st george is absolutely NOT that place to go for flowy trails. It is the place for fun techy stuff, it has very raw rocky, low speed, high skill trails. It is my favorite type of riding, but I understand if you dont like it
@@ethanjolleyy ,....Thanks for your reply. I found out the truth of what you have said. Not a lot of flowy trails here, nevertheless, some really great riding. For me, at my age I prefer flowy trails where you can just keep going. Some up and some down. Not really into the all up and all down stuff anymore. I have a lot of great trails right by my house like barrel roll, sidewinder, stucki springs, rim rock, etc. Also, the road riding here is awesome. Thanks again.
@@tonybasoni8443 oh, its nice to see that you moved down there. I was just there visiting my grandparents over the weekend. I love the riding down there, and it is a super nice place. It is good to see that you found some good trails. One trail you could try is the desert canyons trail system, it has some pretty smooth riding and there isn't a lot of techy stuff. My grandpa rides it all the time because it is right next to his house. There are like 3 trails there and they are good trails with good views.
i love the Pulp Fiction like glowing lunch box... "r we happy?"
"Lobster Guards" killed me, hahaha. I love the cactus, and your accent!
Love it! Fellow non-jumper, XC dork here

I'm loving the revival here!
Great video. Barrel and Zen are incredible trails.
St. George, Check✔️ On the list. I like to peddle and I don’t like hospitals.
I was there last week, and that "tennis court like finish" doesn't exist this year.
Nice! If that's the worst St.George has to offer...sign me up!!

Agreed... I've experienced that twice.
Hi, buddy. Miss you!
Worst TH-cam title! Hah great video, love that area.
Yes it’s Green Valley. Live there.
Check out the Big Bend in Texas for more desert desolation! The IMBA epic is called "Fresno Sauceda Loop".
More trail previews!
I live In St George
Lucky!
