The Legendary Ribbon...Mountain Biking the Ribbon, Lunch Loops, Grand Junction Colorado

NEWEST RIBBON Vid here:    • I FEAR BUT RIDE  // The Legend of the Ribb...   GRAND JUNCTION, CO- MTB @ the Ribbon Trail. Ribbon Rides Part I: The Legendary Ribbon! The Ribbon is probably my favorite Western Colorado trail and it has everything a rider could ask for in 3 miles. Even so much, that MRP deciding to name their newest fork after the 1,500 ft. of descendinglikeademon moments of mountain biking glory. Ribbons of entrada sandstone, technical climbs, flow, chunk, sketch drops, high speeds etc. the Ribbon has it. The views are stellar with scenes of the Colorado and Gunnison Rivers, the Bookcliffs and Roan Plateau, the Grand Mesa, and to the southeast you can catch a glimpse of the 14,306 ft. Uncompahgre Peak and the Black Canyon National Park. This is Colorado. Getting there: The Ribbon Trail is accessed by the Ribbon Trailhead. Take Little Park Road south for about 7 miles to the Trailhead. The TH does have a outhouse at the top. Shuttle option: leave a vehicle at the Tabeguache Trailhead and shuttle a vehicle to the Ribbon. Shorter options include leave vehicle around primitive parking near the Andy’s drop in, entrance to the lunch line, or Little Park TH (also known as First Flats I think). Climbing, if you can’t arrange a shuttle with some buddies climbing is your only option. The Road: From Tabeguache, you can mash up the climb to Little Park Road however you want just get there and climb roughly ~2,000 ft. to the Ribbon. This can take 1.5 to 3 hours depending on fitness level. Again you can shorten the climb by starting at Andy’s drop in or Little Park TH, but that also shortens the quality of the downhill. When wrapping up the Ribbon you are faced with a great many option. This is what the Ribbon rides mini series is about. A right will take you the central hub for the lunch loops with several ride options available. A left will take you on Andy’s to a really fun downhill next to the East Gate of the Colorado National Monument. The Ribbon is currently Stage 1 in the Grand Enduro Race held in early June.
