FAT TIRE BIKING
There are some areas of Anza-Borrego that have solid dirt roads that
can be explored on typical mountain bikes but the majority of the
roads and washes are very sandy or have sandy sections for typical
mountain bike tires.
Fat tire bikes, with wide tires and low
tire pressures, really expand the possibilities of places to explore
by bike. Braking systems are also engineered to provide for
smoother and less skittish braking on sandy surfaces. The fat
tires also make the ride a little more cushioned, although, nothing
being free in the world of physics, you will need to put more energy
into the powering of the bike. Expect fun, expect to see the
desert in a unique way, and bring plenty of water for the good
workout. |
