Took the RV and stayed at Lake mead for the wekeend with the family. Discovered the River Mountains trail bike path. You guys in Henderson have it good.  I only had time to ride mile marker 22 to 11 and back, but what a nice route. I had originally planned to ride the main lake road from gate to gate, but decided to check out the path.  Going to head back some weekend soon before it gets much hotter and ride the loop.

Found the website for the project: http://www.rivermountainstrail.com/

Start just outside Lake Las Vegas and go to Alan Bible Vistor center is a 34 mile ride.  A bit on the hilly side, but pretty nice ride.  It is just a couple miles from my house.

Still gravel as of yesterday.  I haven't looked up completion time.  I know if you go from gravel to Alan Bible it is about 50 miles.

The trail was paved all the way to Railroad Pass and open today.  Fresh asphalt, not striped yet but open.  FYI

I was told that today.  I ran the trail from Old Vegas and back to Lake Meade.  Were you riding out there today?  I only saw a few riders,  I was running around 6:30

I rode late, finishing at noon.  Couldn't be helped, and it was hot!  I did the full loop and hardly saw anyone.  I came from BC to Railroad Pass on the highway and caught the trail in the parking lot.  That is when I saw it was open.  I was looking forward to it being open because now I can ride both directions.  I hate crossing that highway. 

How often do you run/bike out there?  I am on the trail 2-3 times a week.

I can run or ride it most everyday since I live just off of it at racetrack and warm springs.
