Adobe Jack trail in Central Sedona is VERY cool, and much different than any other trails I've encountered here in Sedona. So many tight twisty turns between SO MANY TREES. Its so beautiful, so fun, sketchy in a good way, and so challenging for an intermediate rider! Defiantly check out this area of trails for something a little different in Sedona.
For this Lollipop Loop...
I start at the Adobe Jack Parking Lot right off of 89A and parking is limited to around 5 spaces. I head up Adobe Jack until I take Grand Central Trail, then I hit up Anthill Loop for a little slick-rock and site-seeing detour where you can see Thunder Mountain looming in the distance this entire ride its very cool. After the Ant-Hill Loop Detour, You get back onto Grand Central...This is where I snagged a tree branch and crashed. My left wrist is still swollen! But It'll be ok tomorrow... After Grand Central I took Power Line Plunge (uphill) then I got to Javelina....Then I take this cool trail down to Manzanita to cut back over to Adobe Jack and the parking lot.
So many trees, so much beauty, very fun and challenging riding in Sedona!
This was only 50 Minutes, 5.35 Miles, and 800 Feet of Elevation. Such a good burner ride! Enjoy! :)

Sara, your videos are greatly appreciated. We are about the same skill level and I am almost 75 years old and live in Prescott. You know, it’s easy to rack up thousands of feet of climbing there and that is a challenge for me to keep my heart rate manageable. I will ride until I am physically unable since I get such great joy from it. I’ve been riding bikes since I was a little kid.

I love that!! Keep riding and see you out there! Prescott is beautiful

I'm four, four-and-a-half months behind. You'll have to excuse my late comments as I'm catching up! Loving the channel so far! That crash was a good hit. Getting back up's a big deal, too. Good work! One word of advice/experience you didn't ask for (and I wouldn't normally just throw unsolicited advice out) but I feel compelled to share for you and anyone else who runs across this comment: After a crash/fall, the adrenaline can make you get up and try to get back going right away. If you have a serious injury you can accidentally make it MUCH worse by riding on it. Take a moment to evaluate your person and your bike before you jump back on and start going. That would have prevented a somewhat serious injury for me and a bunch of others I've talked to. I had to learn it the hard way and I wish someone would have just told me to take a second to make sure I was ok. This is me telling all of you out there - KZfaq creators and viewers alike - to take a second and evaluate. Then jump on and rip the rest of your ride if all's good! I'm glad you've recovered well (as indicated by your replies to other comments). I can't wait for the next chance I get to watch another of your videos!

Wow thanks so much for caring and the advice…I completely agree, looking back it was adrenaline for sure that got me back to the truck. 4 months behind is ok 😁Thank you so much for watching and enjoying! ☺️

Love that you don’t cut out all the uphills when you edit. I want to see the whole ride! Also, if you’re ever near Canon City CO, this ride reminds me of Oil Well Flats trail system. BEST intermediate fun I’ve ever had!

Awesome!! Thank you for the suggestion…I plan on going back to CO in spring once things get warmer

For my money this was the best loop you've shared in the area. Bummer about the crash, way to soldier on afterward. You didn't ride like you were spooked after that. Bike/gear scratches and battle wounds are just a part of it and they tell a story. I've always been interested in traveling to Sedona to ride and this loop just sold it for me. My day will come. Keep riding, thanks for all your videos.

Yikes, clipped the bar, hate it when that happens. Glad you're ok. If you decide to wear elbow pads, G-Form X3s and TLD Speed Sleeves are light protection but disappear after a while, you forget you even have them on. Thanks for keeping it real - not everyone is secure enough to show HABs and crashes 👏💪

I just came back from Sedona, i'm from Tucson. I did manzanita to adobe jack to grand central all the way down to the bottom, i forget the trail but it connects to the botom of adobe and then to powerline plunge. I decided not to do the upper limit of the PP trail so i went back down grand central to manzanita then went north on javalina a half mile from pp/javalina then went back down to manzanita and to the east end parking lot 500ft south of manzanita.

Don't be shy about wearing pads,elbows and knee,especially now with cool temperatures. Eventually you'll want to try some black diamonds... full face helmet maybe also.

@Sara.Jo. 7 ай бұрын

Lol I do have elbow pads but those wouldn’t have helped me in this crash anyway. Also way too hot for elbow pads..maybe when it’s colder and I’ll most likely never wear a full face helmet, but that’s just me 🤷‍♀️

Forearms and shins, you'll going to get your battle wounds there trust me. Don't know what you're carrying in your Camelback. Super glue & a half dozen Band-Aids. Super glue does the trick for gashes. I haven't seen you use your dropper post. Are you trying to work that in to your riding?

The ‘e-bike’ is an inside joke with the people on this channel. Sorry the gear is annoying, this comment is annoying so I guess we’re even. Yes, it is very beautiful. You can’t ride e-bikes in Sedona on the trails FYI.
