Prescott & Sedona Arizona
 
Likely I will end up relocating to north central Arizona. I've ridden the mile markers and south of Prescott 1 time. Is there good riding within 90 minutes of these areas? Sort of asking the question - if you move to Arizona to ride where would you live? Obviously can't ride in Sedona but are there places relatively close? Both Prescott and Sedona have good mountain biking so I can stay in shape to dirt bike:)

I spent 11 months in Prescott. There is riding close by. Also Wickenburg is near as well as Flag.

Verde is not that great, mostly dual tracks. Wickenberg is a better option then Flagstaff and Verde. But what is really good is Sheridan mtn. North of Prescott. PITA road to drive down, but great single tracks there.
Where exactly are you moving to?

Have not yet decided exactly where we will live. I would say the short list is Sedona or Prescott. Sedona is obviously expensive and small lots. Prescott seems to have good options if I want some acreage and a decent size house. The road to Sheridan require 4 wheel drive?

Thanks for the information

Oh, is it out by Camp wood someplace? If so I may have walked some of those trails elk hunting a few years ago.

Yep, same place. If you are in town ATR is holding an enduro there April 13th. Best race of the year, I never miss it!

There is great single track in the Bradshaw mountains near Prescott, as well as some good single track very close to Prescott proper. Join Arizona Trail Talk and post on the forums there. You will find a ride.. Or, you can PM me and we will set something up.
