From Mt. Lemon to Saguaro East (the smoothest pavement with one way traffic) to hill climbs in the foothills(Fairfield is incredible for intraval hill training ) or if you like the dirt and single track Fantasy Island, 50 year trail, starr pass, willow springs and the list goes on. Even for the casual rider the Rillito river trail offers miles of car free biking heaven. I’m not just saying this because I’m a Realtor and want you to move here, I say it because I ride all of them and can’t get enough. I just got in from a ride in Fairfield at night, rode by the moonlight and saw no cars in an over an hour.
