Mountain bikes and cyclocross bikes are your best choice. There are a few hike-a-bike sections, but not as many as earlier on in the year when there were too many stream crossings.
While having a merry time, riding over rocks and shallow creek-beds, be cautious. Watch out for rattle snakes and Poison Oak.
At the end of your destination, after you pass the Gould Mesa Campground and the Paul Little Campground, you will be rewarded by the vision of the Brown Mountain Dam!
Don't hesitate. Take a moment to take your shoes off to cool off your feet before the fast and fun descent back to JPL.
As always, with riding, be safe, bring lots of water, always wear a helmet, and please be courteous to other trail users. We, cyclists, always desire a good reputation!
Ride On!
