About This Route

Ride out to Saguaro Lake via Bush Highway, following Salt River; return on Beeline Highway. While there are large shoulders on highways at nearly all parts, be aware that Bush Highway is used heavily by boaters, and the Beeline is a 4-lane mostly-divided highway with very heavy traffic at times. Alternatives: Ride McKellips to Ellsworth and take the Usery Pass road, Take McDowell instead of McKellips, Use Gilbert Rd as a shortcut (places not rider friendly). Note that most of the route is through park/forest/reservation, so services (restrooms, water stops, etc) are limited. On the Beeline, a good stopping point is at the Fort McDowell Rd junction, or at Shea Blvd turn to Fountain Hills.
