Written Directions

Pick up Red Rock Rd off of US hwy 395 in the town of Stead Nv. The route ends at US hwy 395 again, except your now in California and at the red rock cliffs. From here its a short hop back to Reno, NV or points north like Susanville, CA

Scenery

Scenery is not strong but there are the Dogskin Mt in the distance. Continue North on North Red Rock Rd through farms and cattle ranch's. There is also a ranch for wild horses on the route. Scenery is sparse but majestic in view. The Red Rocks Cliffs at the end of the ride are nice to look at.

Drive Enjoyment

The road is very good at the beginning of the ride, but there are a few holes to look out for about 5 miles from the end of the route where it gets a bit older and has a few more tar snakes. The road itself is ok with a few holes that are easily dodged. There are also so good twisty s towards the end of the route!

Tourism Opportunities

The only road side amenity is the shell station at the beginning of the route. They have some fast food and snakes. That being said there pizza is great and should be tried.

This was a really nice ride. Smooth road, fair amount of sweepers and twisties. Several cattle guards and look out for dirt and gravel from side streets on road. Rode to CA and back.
