This ride offers cyclists an opportunity to enjoy some of the best views in the valley. The Paseo del Bosque Trail winds along the Rio Grande, with flat tree-lined terrain. It is downhill to the Trail and a climb upon return to the Stadium. Two rest stops will be provided to support riders. Class 1 E-Bikes are allowed on the route. Class 1 operates only while being pedaled and under 20 mph. No other motorized vehicles or other classes of E-Bikes are allowed.

50 mile ride

This scenic route will first take riders east out of Albuquerque towards Sandia Crest, then south on Hwy 337 from Tijeras. During the slow climb, riders will pass the Chamisoso, Tunnel and Sabino Canyons. Keep your heads up and eyes peeled to take notice of the dozens of miles of hiking and biking trails on either side of Hwy 337. This may be where your next adventure lies! At mile 30, riders reach the highest point of the ride. While you’re getting refreshed at the Oak Flats rest stop, pause to enjoy and take it all in, because it’s all downhill from there! No motorized vehicles or E-Bikes are allowed on the route.
