Cycling Red Rock Canyon Scenic Loop On A Specialized Tarmac
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
- On my trip to Las Vegas, I was able to rent a road bike after the CES. I hit up Las Vegas Cyclery for a Specialized Tarmac Sport in size 56cm. It was the perfect place to head out to the Red Rock Canyon from.
I took the I-215 West Beltway Trail from Las Vegas Cyclery all the way to Route 159 W Charleston Blvd. Turned left and took 159 (which has a cycling lane up to a certain point just before the residential area ends) all the way to the Red Rock Canyon Scenic Loop . There's plenty of shoulder on the highway on 159 Red Rock Canyon Rd, but always be cautious on the roads. It's about $5-8 entry for a cyclist, depending on the attendant you get. Grab a pit stop at the Visitor Centre just past the entrance gates for some water and a washroom break. There's even a vending machine if you forgot snacks/drinks.
The Red Rock Canyon Scenic Loop itself is breathtaking. It's basically a 2-lane one-way road that takes your through some beautiful landscape. It's got punchy climbs and descents, and I fared quite well on the rim-brake @specializedbicycles Tarmac Sport. There were a few places I wanted to stop to do some hiking, but that will have to wait until tomorrow's vlog. Highly recommend you visit the folks at @lasvegascyclery for a bike rental if you visit Las Vegas. They've got road bikes, hybrid, electric and mountain bikes.
Stay tuned for my next vlog where I head out to the Red Rock Canyon and Mt. Charleston area for some hiking.

Thank you Henry for promoting our bike shop and the bike rental. Love the video highlighting red rock canyon. Quick suggestion for you: music is too loud compare to your voice, that make the viewer adjusting the sound constantly up and down watching this video. I'm sure you will know how to fix this issue. Cheers and see you next time.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ve since purchased a set of wireless microphones to help with the volume/noise 👌
My stomping grounds! Glad you were able to experience that legendary ride every cyclist should no matter the discipline
What a great place to have stomping grounds! Keep on riding 🤙
Tarmac with rim brakes. The best and rare to see now days
Rim brake for life 😬
@@henrychungfitness just bough a '22 Specialized Aleez Elite Rim Brake that replaces my '22 Trek Domane AL5 Disc. The ride difference between rim and disc is night and day
How much was it to rent a bike?
I believe it was about $60+tax for a day of renting the Tarmac. You can check their pricing online at Las Vegas Cyclery
