pedal pusher - View this location on map  'the best way to see durango is from a mountain bike. stop by pedal the peaks (970-259-6880) for supplies, maps, directions and rentals ($15 to $55). cruise less than a half mile through town to the horse gulch trailhead (at third and eighth avenues). horse gulch has more than 28 miles of interconnected single-track trails (only slightly wider than your bike tire) through undeveloped wilderness. start with the meadow loop, a two-mile ride over gentle rolling terrain through fields of wildflowers and sagebrush. up for more? tack on another seven miles with stacey's loop or take the telegraph trail to sidewinder, and you'll begin to see why world-champion mountain bikers like ned overend and myles rockwell chose to make durango home.''
