Where is Mummy Mountain? It sounds pretty sweet. Is it a good long run? I know of a few good runs, we should meet up and skate sometime. Have you ever been to South Mountain?

Also, here's a decent looking run I found on google earth that's in Flagstaff. I think the whole 89a is a decent road to ride:

Bicycling, bicycle, bicycle parts, bicycle trips, bicycle tours, cycling, cyclists

If you're taking the 87 up and not the 17 then check out this road:

mummy mountain is just a real chill mountain with a couple good hills. you can take scottsdale road to cheney and take cheney all the way up. it is like a 1/2 mile to a mile run, not that long but thats where i learned how to ride so i love it and you get up to like 30ish. im there almost everyday. so yea check it out! and i havnt been to south mountain yet but im goin on the 28! im so excited. i was in fountain hills this weekend and i broke 45mph for the first time. it was intense. i wana go up to flag sometime and find a nice mountain road sooo yea!

I'm out at Silent Sunday every month, it's a lot of fun! There should be quite a few people going this month. I usually go pretty early to avoid the heat. What's your setup like?

Sweet man. South Mountain is a pretty fast technical hill though so you gotta make sure you know what you're doing.

how fast do you get goin?
and how are the turns? like speed wise

ive topped at 45 on a straight hill in fountain hills, and ive take some gentle curves at 30
so idk

[Reece Man]

Speeds are around 45 to 50 I'm estimating, I haven't hit 50 yet I know for a fact. Turns toward the top can get pretty gnarly but once you get toward the bottom it's pretty much all straight.

I haven had a chance to skate anywhere else yet so i stay in mesa at las sendas. There is a hill called hawes road. front side is a straight shot that you can hit 40 on if you tuck. Backside is steady thirties for the most part and nothin to gnarly. fun place to ride just watch for traffic

[connerdc]

[Reece Man]

It's about 40 MPH
