“We’ve built other blacks out there, but nothing like this,” said Lars Romig, Board Member for the Verde Valley Cyclists Coalition (VVCC) and the driving force behind the Hardline project. “If you’ve ridden Hangover — the steep, slickrock stuff towards the end of Hangover — this is like that, but take it to another level. It’s just more interesting, more beautiful.”
Sedona’s new Hardline trail is quickly becoming renowned as one of the most technical mountain bike trails in the USA. The trail begins with a steep filter feature to keep unsuspecting riders out… and it only gets harder from there. The trail is filled with steep rock rollers, chunder, and vertigo-inducing exposure.
The work required to build this technical masterpiece was monumental. In this film, you can go behind the scenes with the Verde Valley Cycling Coalition and the Red Rock Trail Fund to see just how they made the magic happen.
