Ride in RainYes
A great fire road with amazing views. Its got shade for the most of the fist part then when it climbs out of the canyon it leaves the shade. It is steep enough to be very challenging but never to steep to the point where you have no gears left. It is a long climb though, anywhere from 1 hour to 1 hour and 45 minutes depending on your fitness. So make sure to bring plenty of water and some food is good.
Side Trips: At the top you can take the fire road to the right a few more miles to get to the top of red reaf single track and descend there meeting back up with the bottom of sisar. Or you can go left and ride the fire road up and down for a bit and eventually meet at gridley and can decent there though that is a long road ride back to the car.
