We here at the Dirty Roads are committed to bring you the very best rides and routes that we know and ride. We are not trying to be a clearinghouse for every possible dirty road ride that could be put together, but instead trying to provide you with the best, or at least our personal favorites. In our motto “If you only had one day to ride…” lies the challenge that have set out for ourselves, to layout the ride we would send you out on if you only had one day. We might look at the width of your tires and ask you how many hours you’d like to spend in the saddle but we will expect you to come back satisfied from any one of the rides that we have posted. Not every ride is the one that changes your entire expectations for what cycling should be and makes you sell your road bike, but that ride is out there if you haven’t already done it.
We started this website as a place not only to display our 20+ years of exploration but in response the lack of quality that we found when searching through the internet for what others had posted. Some websites give you a bit of everything with road, singletrack and casual bike path rides all mixed together, the user generated content out there can be even more inconstant. We want to offer you rides that are worthy of your time and to know you are getting a curated selection of what we have ridden and approved of.
