Arizona Desert Bike Tour

Phoenix to Tucson and back on a Trek Mountain bike. After doing many tours on my electric mountain bike I wanted to know if I could do it on a normal mountain bike without a motor. You will have to watch the video to find out how it goes.

0:00 Day 1 - Phoenix to Coolidge

On this day I go from Peoria to about 10 miles outside of Coolidge to setup camp. I also pass a few of Phoenix homeless camps on this tour while on the Arizona canal trail. The joys of bike packing.

13:36 Day 2 - Coolidge to Tucson

On this day I go from my camp about 10 miles outside of Coolidge to the city of Tucson, Arizona.

26:42 Day 3 - Tucson to Coolidge

Tucson to Phoenix on a Trek Mountain bike. This is day 4 and the last day of this bike touring adventure. I go from camp back to my house in Peoria, Arizona. To do this I must cross the overly large city of Phoenix on a day the ended up being much hotter then expected. Luckily there is many places to stop for a drink so water was not a problem on this part of the tour.
