We drove ~45 minutes from Palm Desert to the starting point, hopped on our bikes, and enjoyed an easy 15 mile cruise through an other-wordly landscape. Captain Ron, tour guide extraordinaire, gave us lots of info during the drive and on occasional stops in the canyon. The Coachella Valley is a truly unique place -- between this, Joshua Tree, and Indian Canyon, we feel like we visited three different planets in a week!

Ben was so knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. He was passionate about explaining everything about the fault zones, topography and plant & animal life. Easy downhill ride that gets prettier as the ride progresses.
