“A steady and smooth climb up to some of the favorite trails and rides in the area. ”

Description [Suggest Changes]

Spiro was once used as a way to climb up to the Mid Mountain Trail, or other much longer trails and rides in the area. However, it's become more of a trail for riding down than up, and it's no longer a great way to get up.

Now, the best way up is to take Armstrong, which is one-way.

The trail is very smooth, and consistently up/down, depending on which way you're traveling. On the way down, it's fast, with no technical features to worry about.

I would really recommend riding up Armstrong instead (and down Spiro). Armstrong starts just up the road and is one-way only. Spiro is a great choice of a climb if you love head-on collisions with people riding down at mach 10. Oct 10, 2013
