For those who are looking for more than a taste of the local riding, this is the loop for you. The All Day Epic combines the classic, complicated, technical descents on Cyclone Clinic and Plum Line with a little flow mixed in on Evolution 2. With just under 3,000 ft of climbing and about 14 miles of singletrack, this is a burly ride and a long day in the saddle. From the sweeping corners of Evolution to the oldschool tech on Cyclone, to the BIG HITS on Plum Line, this ride has a bit of everything on it and is sure to leave you ready for a big meal.

Here’s the skinny:
Up Rev, Ev 1 and 2
Down Enchanted to LEFT on Cyclone Connector down Upper Cyclone
Up Dana Hill (quick grind) to Clinic
Down Clinic
Up GS and Enchanted
Optional loop: Flow Down Ev 2 (break from the technical riding) and back up Dana Hill - Cyclone Connector - Enchanted.
Follow Enchanted down to the Tucker Hill Trailhead. Left on the quiet dirt Tucker HIll Rd and look to your right for Maple twist.
UP Maple Twist leads you to the scenic, technical Ridgie–tech with flow.
DOWN Race with great jump lines Continue left onto Powerline
UP the smooth, easy, flowy Swell Hill and the challenging technical Pusherman
DOWN the new, action-packed, Little Sumpin’ a ridge run with slabs and drops!
DOWN the incredible, technical, complicated Plum Line! You’ll end your ride with some of the most challenging and committing features in the Valley (or ride around them, no pressure!)
