NMTS Ride Schedule

NOTE: In addition to these one time rides, the club has recurring rides most days of the week. To view them, choose the "Weekly Rides" link in the menu at your left.

Pace is the speed, plus or minus one, that will be maintained on flat terrain with no wind. Distance refers to miles traveled in a day; on multi-day rides it refers to total miles for the trip, and a daily average is calculated from that.

Rides with a light-green background occur over multiple days

HELMETS CSPC, Snell or ANSI Approved Helmets are REQUIRED for all NMTS rides.
EBIKES Class 1 E-bikes are welcome where conditions allow, and at the ride leader's discretion. Class 2 and Class 3 E-bikes are not permitted on NMTS rides.

Currently not on this ride

Camping and riding Zuni mountains mountain bike area. Weather should be high 70s during the day and mid 40s at night. I will be arriving Thursday afternoon (May 22nd) and staying at least 3 nights and riding 3 days, possibly more. I will be tent camping, but smallish trailers and RVs are fine. Hilso trail head has free, first come, dispersed camping just beyond the parking area for trailhead and pit toilets. Also option for more formal campsite, just a little further south on NM-500, is Quaking Aspen campground and requires reservations. I am planning on doing all rides from the Hilso trailhead although we can organize shuttles to shorten rides and add variety if people are interested. Most trails are rated green or blue. Rides will be between 12 and 20 miles and we will get started around 9am each day or whatever time we collectively decide. Please reach out to me and let me know if you are interested.
