Phoenix
Phoenix is where the miles start. Flat valley, hard light, a few climbs that make you earn the view. This is the hub for the routes I ride here — each one written from the road and counted toward 7,500 miles for queer communities. Pledge a mile and the number moves.
The route guides
The Paradise Valley Loop
A peaceful ~40-mile loop — desert, big homes, a fast golf-course stretch, and the backside climb to a sunrise view.
Read the guide → South Mountain at SunsetUptown down Central, through downtown into South Phoenix — a short, punchy climb to a sunset view.
