Mountain Biking Pipeline Road
#181 of 283 mountain bike trails in New Mexico
This is a jeep road that climbs about 2200 feet in 4.4 miles. There's not much in the way of technical, but the climb is relentless and the surface loose much of the way. The lower portion of this trail makes a good uphill leg for a downhill on the Quazemon trail, and the upper portion extends to the excellent Guaje Ridge Trail.

This fire road may be accessed from either the top of the Quazemon residential area at the top of Quazemon street or from the Perimeter trail.
This is one ugly fire road. You can take "fire road" literally, as this area was destroyed by the great Los Alamos fire. What that means on the road surface is a lot of erosion and loose sand and gravel that will suck the life out of your legs. Some of the pitches, especially toward the top as you approach Guaje Ridge, are vicious. None but the fittest will ride the whole thing nonstop.
