Pony Express

Are You Ready For a Superb Intro Ride Across the Slick Rocks of Sedona?

If you’re seeking a family-friendly hybrid riding experience, that’s sensitive to your group dynamics, than this ride is right for you. This outing offers deeper levels of instruction about MTB 101 and how to safely operate your bike, while taking more breaks along the way to ensure a perfect pace for everyone. These unique rides, can even take minor detours to scenic overlook hikes or beautiful creekside paradises. Maximizing your family’s adventure time together and keeping everyone engaged throughout the outing. Our family-friendly rides also involve more interpretation than our other mountain biking outings about: edible plants, unique desert creatures, wilderness survival skills, vortices, geology, and Native American cultural history. 


These experiences will cultivate a fun learning environment, with a pressure-free riding experience, to allow your family the flexibility to choose a riding adventure perfectly paired with their interests, abilities, potential fears, and special requests. By default, these outings typically ride easy to moderate level trails with limited technical features. This creates a more mellow riding experience overall and offers plenty of time to take photos. All the while, enjoying the most amazing panoramic views of Red Rock Country with the people who matter most. 


These experiences are made to be inclusive for all and approachable for any rider or any ability to attend. Let us show you the way and help cultivate a family bonding adventure you will never forget. Exploring nature is always best when done with those you love most.
