This video was taken in July 2012 from the hood on my truck. I am planning on riding this road later this year. Elevation at the beginning of video is around 10,600. The video is only four miles from start to finish and the end elevation is 6,800feet. It was driven in four low in first gear for the most part. So just a crawl really to enjoy all the amazing views!!!!


This video really doesn't show the elevations of the road very well.:thumbup:teeth


Slow going video with some slow music.

Silver Canyon Rd is a ton of fun on a bike! The views from up there are crazy on a clear day. Lots of water crossings at the bottom, steep switchbacks at the top, and if you keep your eyes open you might even spot some bighorn sheep up there :thumbup

Back in the 80s there was a mountain bike race down it... I was on a single speed, coaster brake, I had to walk the mile of uphill at the start... out of a 110 competitors I started the downhill in like 108th place... came in top ten... insane good times!
