Long drive (1.5 hours from Santa Fe) but hey only an extra half hour from past trips.
Start from near Jemez Springs Ranger Station. Ride to Fenton Lake. Have a snack. Ride back.
Ride is 37 miles, 3982 ft elevation gain (ok, close to 4K). 4S (some short steep stuff) BUT the last 15 miles (give or take) are all downhill. So the climbing is jammed into the first 23 miles. Even better, there is a nice downhill from mile 14 to 18 for a break. So essentially climb from mile 0 to mile 14, descend for 4, relax at the lake, climb from mile 18 to 23. Enjoy the rest of the ride. Lunch in Jemez Springs.
