SLO County’s Mountain Biking Source

Pine Mountain Road near the Castle Craggs in Pozo.

New! Check out these video links to local SLO County Rides!
Welcome to the most complete , and FREE, on-line source for mountain biking in San Luis Obispo County. Check out the various rides descriptions in the area. It is highly recommended that you purchase a guide book (the best one is Fat Tire Fun) before riding, as many of these trails are likely to evolve over the years. The ride descriptions are informational, but not exact. New ORV roads and trails are cut each year, so make sure you are up to date with the latest published descriptions. GPS information is now available for the majority of the rides.

NEW!!  Motion Based GPS software has transferred all records to Garmin Connect.  SLOBike.com is in the process of updating all GPS information.  New features will be available to the viewers.  Updates include different satellite images, topo maps, and pictures (click on “more”) uploaded from our fellow riders. Rides labeled with asterisks* have been updated with GPS information.

Please make sure to leave me a comment regarding how you liked the site, or if you had a good experience. Please report any trail changes, too, and I’ll make sure to make corrections when necessary.

Roller Coasters

(Roller Coasters as seen near top of Shooters) GPS Link Roller Coasters is basically a road with a fairly anti-climatic ending.  I like to ride this one once or twice a year just to mix things up a bit.  It is a fun ride, but not the best. From the top of Shooters you’ll see [...]
