From deep red rock and canyons carved by time to soaring mountains ranges and remnants of the past, the Red Rocks to Mountain Tops adventure ride pays homage to the rich culture, mining history, and sweeping frontier that shaped the Wild West.
This adventure route has been years in the making and showcases some of the most spectacular views the West has to offer. Winding with the Colorado River, summiting 13,000’ mountain passes, and traveling by abandoned mines, powerful waterfalls, and varied historical landmarks, the trail is guaranteed to take your breath away.
As part of our RM Rides series, we’ve documented the ride and put it together in a video series and companion blog post, making it easy for you to plan your own Red Rocks to Mountain Tops adventure. We’ve provided the GPS files below so you can follow our same route.

Hi! I loved the videos for Red Rocks to Mountain Tops as well as the Battleborn Nevada series you did. I’m trying to plan trips to do both of these rides but the link to the gps files isn’t working for either of them. Is there still a way to get these gpx files? Thanks in advance!!
If the purpose of these videos are to motivate me to get back out there so I buy more parts from RM, it's working. Thanks, guys!
Glad to hear it! We love being able to provide as much value as possible through the entire process of owning and riding adventure bikes! We appreciate you following along with us! - Josh
@@rmatvmc yes love this video series guys.
Even with all the internet research tools, good gear, and good bikes this is still a big undertaking. My pops used to do this kind of stuff back in the 60's on old Triumph's and BSA's with a fistful of paper maps.
It's great that you included all those older bikes (plus some new bikes), to show people that you don't necessarily need a brand new KTM to have a great adventure. Looking forward to watching the series and seeing how they all go.
I love the old gen 1 KLR. He is my hero.
Scotty is gnarly for riding with his bars bent so far out of wack!
That's it!!! I'm going to retire and do that. My 690 sits in my living room. It needs to be climbing mountain trails.
Utah is such a beautiful state. I was out there just a week ago around Northern Arizona and then around Moab at Arches National Park. I was with the family, so no bike to ride, but I want to get out there on two wheels and experience all that area has to offer. Was in Colorado as well. After finishing the Continental Divide through Colorado it definitely teased my appetite for that area. Gotta get back out there on my bike. Looks like a blast!
You should! It definitely won't disappoint you! Thanks for your views and feedback.
Watching this after a year stuck in quarantine in Europe, after years of travelling and living around the world. Managed to do a solo bike trip last summer from Italy to Nordkapp and down through Eastern Europe and stayed in Greece 1 month. But now back in lockdown. Watching these kinds of videos right now isn’t easy but I’m so grateful that you made them! Thank you!
yess advenure time baby !!! binge watching time again !!! thx for sharing boys
i wish u guys have more time to do any video like this again. because i like it so much
Wow, guys, inspiring stuff. I’m a mountain biker who is slowly getting into the dual-sport scene and I’m so glad I found your channel and site. So much to learn!
I'm in the exact same situation, I have a YT Capra and just picked up an XT350 and I'm afraid that I've fallen in love with another expensive hobby hahaha
Want a fun day ride in Colorado? Hit Pikes Peak, Mt. Evans, and Rocky Mt. National Park in the same day... Bring a jacket.
This looks like an amazing thing to do!! Sitting here thinking of how awesome it would be to do this with my son someday when he is older.
Justin is the only person I recognize his videos are why I get my products from Rocky Mountain ADV. Nice route wish I was there and by the way the tusk products on your web site are amazing so durable.
Thanks for the shout out! Yeah Justin is our OG around here, and is credited for a lot of what the channel is now! - Josh
All i gotta say is: wow! your country is so beautiful, what fun you are having. fantastic
Thanks for following along with us! This is definitely one of our favorite rides!
What a top quality video! No selfie shots, no constant blabbing, no blasting music but instead lots of amazing scenery and excellent voice over. Big thumbs up! I will say though, those bikes didn’t look like they ranged from five feet to nineteen feet long :)
U gotta be kidding me, quality video??? hell no
Halfway through, finally riding!
Awesome love the ADV rides! And a Gen 1 KLR 👍
We love them too! The KLR is where we got started with ADV riding, so it will always have a special place in our hearts and rides! 🤘- Josh
Amazing!! One day... one day
Very cool. I've spent time over the years in Monticello at Bull Hallow and have made trips up through Telluride, Ouray, Silverton on pavement. As stunningly beautiful as the area is from the road, you show how much more outrageously awesome it is from the trail. Good job! Thank you for posting what seems to be your living our dreams!
Thanks for putting this all together, 5 of us just finished your ride. Did the 5 day plan, worked out great. We did add Last Dollar road instead of the highway into Telluride, but everything else we followed your tracks. Awesome ride!
We love hearing that! It's such an epic area to explore. Thanks for letting us know how it went.
This is awesome! Thanks for all the resources to plan out this ride and the comments about the sections and alternates. RMATV is a great company and i'm happy to be a repeat customer.
Awesome video series! I am a little disappointed that Justin isn't riding the DT 175! How about an ADV series on the budget bikes? Definitely inspired to get back and ride.
Ray on the xr500 and skelly on the dt175 would have made this SO much better!
Thanks guys! I don't think the DT would have made it. We are talking about doing an ADV ride on budget bikes though. I think it would be a blast! - Justin
Liberty Tree I recently got the CRF250L and was wondering how far I can push it. Most videos on YT limit it to dirt roads. You think it can do some of these trails?
@@SteveFelt67 dude are you blind? He’s riding a ktm 890..... a adventure bike. Unless your a absolutely horrible rider, you should be able to do way way more than this.
Awesome guys......thanks for sharing...looking forward to the rest (found the rest !!)...Hay Ho from CANADA!
So stoked for this series. I love your rides you guys do!
12:48... YES PLEASE! May i have another (twisted dirt trails)
Love this. Wish I had friends that ride.
Make some Mitchell, social media is a great tool for this, hit up the area-specific section of a forum!
Fantastic and inspiring. No idea how anyone can hit the thumbs down unless they are total trolls. Great vid 🤘👍
Thanks for the support and following along! We had a great time putting this together for you guys! - Josh
dickiegoodtimes I guess only few liberals...
Blase Ceasar, douchbag, define liberal literally and get back to me. I know why you need authoritarians telling you what to think and do. You won’t be enjoying nature or technology without many of us science loving folks.
This is an amazing series! Thanks for all the work you put into this ride. Would really enjoy riding this someday. Keep up the good work and ride safe!
FYI, I have found 'Dynaplug' pro tire repair kit is incredible. One pouch has it all, even the inflator. Good Rides and Thanks
Love these adventure rides
Great videos! So fun to watch! Thanks!
I just bought a 2020 Beta 390RR-S and can't wait to hit these passes on day trips! I have a BMWF800GS and have done a few of the backcountry discovery routes by Touratech but I am definitely excited to get out and rip around on a lighter bike. Enjoy all your adventure trips on this channel!
Bruh why do you choose such bad bikes?!? Lmoa
Beautiful
Amazing content! Enjoyed this video thoroughly! Can't wait to see the next episode!
I miss that area, I did a lot of growing up in that area. I have lived in SoCal for the past 37 years now. I grew up on dirt bikes. I'm now looking at adventure bikes. #nevertoooldtogetlooseinthedirt!
Hay mate Paul from Australia , its winter in Australia and were I live up in the Mountains does get snow ( rode throw it 3 weeks ago ) I LOVED your 4 part series " EPIC " would love to come to the states and do that ride. ( after we can travel again ) Keep up the great work
Absolutely love your ADV series vids! You guys do great work getting the information laid out and the editing is top notch! As a fellow Utahn I cant wait to go hit this ride, looking forward to the rest of the series.
Thanks for the support! We'd love to see you out there! If you take any photos while on the route, make sure to tag us and we'll send you some exclusive Red Rocks to Mountain Tops stickers 🤘
9 companions on an adventure...I’ve heard of that before 🧙♂️
Imagine doing this as a complete novice off roader...
Great video!
It’s not that hard....
Great video guys. I have been riding for over 40 years and just recently got into adventure riding. Something I should tried many years ago. I will or sure be watching the rest of the videos..
You guys have the best damn jobs in the whole world. I'm totally jealous!!!!
Wow, what a cool ride. Great work, guys!
Excellent video.
My wrists hurt only from watching this terrain 🗻🪨🏔⛰
Fabulous!!
Beautiful scenery
🤙😀🇵🇪Saludos, muy buen trip
Great Ride!! I was just up in Ouray and Silverton CO on my Tiger 800XCA last week but I was solo riding from AZ thru, NM, CO and UT. Did not take the Imogene Pass because I was riding solo... Thanks for the View!!
Sounds like a great trip! Those are some of our favorite states to adventure through!
Thanks for another great series
I absolutely have to visit you, there are cool tours you do there!
Love from india,have seen the royal Enfield 👍
Awesome ride guys!!
Greetings from New Jersey,hope one day i can join that awesome ride!!
Awesome video and storytelling!!!
Very top gear esk. I loved this video. I can't wait to do this trail myself.
great video!
Awesome vids, cheers from Alaska!
Love these videos👍 gotta come ride with y'all some day!
Great video. Thanks for sharing!!
YOOOO WHERE IS MY BOY CHASE??? We haven’t seen him in forever he is Rocky Mountain “BRING US CHASE...BRING US CHASE...BRING US CHASE”
We've been working on getting him off his dirt bike and onto an ADV bike! Hopefully we'll get him on the next ride!
Amazing view and great adventure. . .
Sweet! A series! :D
Nice bike and gorgeous view!
Awesome scenery!👍👍👍
Of the bikes in this series, it feels like the 450L would make the offroad sections the easiest by far.
Awesome guys
I was riding around grand junction a bit ago and my grandpa takes this for fun it’s pretty cool
amazing footage
Love ur trail sirs wish we had it here in my country
Thanks for putting these together guys - I've rode a few of the BDR routes now and some of the TAT, but these are welcome additions to the gpx library ;)
Thanks for following along! Which routes have been your favorites so far?
Rocky Mountain ATV MC some really great days riding the oregon and washington bdr through the cascades - idaho was really cool as well!
@@mattbillenstein Sounds awesome! We're hoping to head up that way for some future rides! I'm sure Eric is itching to work his route magic through the northern states! - Josh
Awesome ride!
The dude trying to say balaclava…”bacalaca thing”😂
Thanks
Best marketing strategy and great vids!!
I think you should do a multi day touring trip on the Honda CT125 ("Hunter Cub" I believe) once they are available and have some parts for modifying and selling. In some ways, they are designed nicely for light and economic adventuring. (rugged design for a motorbike/"scooter", comes with a huge rear rack, room for wider wheels and tires if you want, has a skid plate, and - gets extremely good fuel mileage - I believe over 150mpg is possible.)
Bikes like these could bring people into ADV (and parts buying) who would otherwise not have done so -- some older guys, women, folks who feel too small/weak for big bikes, scooter nerds, efficiency lovers, nature lovers, hipsters, college kids who would buy a scooter for transportation, etc...
Bawk-a-lock-a?? 😆
LOL !
@@rickgpz1209 I thought it was just me
Little tricky on road-rides (not very smooth), buy my Moose insert gives me peace-of-mind on these rides as I have to worry a lot less about flat tires and such. We've changed plenty of flat tires on these kinds of rides, but never on my bikes.
BACALACA !!!!!!
I just stumbled on you, You're in my hood, I'll be watching for you, watch your rear but, you should be watching where you're going🤣😂🤣
Eric, when are you going to do a video on your upgrades on your 790R??? a lot of us are dying to know!!
Wow, Imogene has had a lot of erosion on the trail... The climb out of Telluride was much smoother last time I did it
God has been cleaning nature with fire for centuries
on the pavement part of the trip, by Ridgeway when you hit highway 62 to highway 145 to Telluride. Y'all should ride the "Last Dollar Road" it doesn't disappoint with the views.
Just ordered stiffer springs front and rear and a couple other things form you guys for my 93 xr650l
very cool
Wolverines? I've always been drawn to wolverines but never seen one, not that I'd expect to see one out there. Dude, you just nudged me one step closer to getting out there to rent a bike. With retirement 14 mos. away and over 100k on my '07 KLR(resting in the shed) anticipation is growing. My Super Tenere is loads of grins here on the central PA roads of all kinds from Appalachian forest roads to Amish farm valley vistas. I'll never get tired of riding PA but my 4th trip to Utah, only in cars so far, will be epic. Looking forward to a Big Sky Moose Drool or two too.
Just found this series tonight and stayed up way past my bedtime for it! Gets me excited for warmer weather. I haven’t seen the other videos so I’m not sure you to gear reviews. Would be good to hear your prefs. That said, which bright day-glo jacket is “Bro” wearing?
I will do this on my CRF1100L one day.
Lots of fun, but it looks like Troy was riding a 2018 Africa Twin Adventure Sports
Old video but I can tell you exactly what it was that gave you a flat @ 20.57 it is the discarded stem from a pop rivet! that was used probably for a jeep trail repair.
Looks like you're right! That seems like a likely scenario.
This was such an Awesome series. Strange its not on their website anymore?
Great stuff. When describing the bikes, the apostrophe goes where something is omitted, so a 2019 is '19. 19' means 19 feet.
take sand flats rd up to La Sal loop rd to gateway.. avoid all the pavement to castle valley
I am 5'11" 200 lbs - if I want to do this kind of riding, would a Honda CRF 450L be powerful enough to handle my weight & luggage on these types of trails??? Thanks - LOVE these videos!
Great video series @RockyMountainATVMC!! Would a WR250R be able to handle this you think? I was wondering if Justin would choose his RM 'Adventurized' WRR, or do you need more horsepower? Some of those rocky sections I would want a super light bike on... not a 650 or heavier. Keep up the great work!
Just finished COBDR on my WR250R. Having a light bike was great, and only once was power a concern due to elevation- the steep switchbacks of Corkscrew Pass required first gear, full throttle, and a bit of clutch to keep from stalling. Lower gearing would have helped... mine is stock.
im looking into maybe buying a drz 400. real quick did you have to swap jets any for that climb in elevation?
I really liked the video but I kinda feel it would have been more fun if the same guys who did the 5 miles of hell where on it! That group seemed to have loads more fun!!
I'm sure they'd love it! We may or may not have something in the works for the 5MOH guys and some cheap ADV bikes! - Josh
Would love to see that!
I am riding a 2007 Kawasaki Ninja 650 "scrambler" and having a blast riding the Silverton Co. area.
I hope y’all start an adventure ride for loyal customers.
I’ve got a Honda CRF250L, you think I can do those passes? I’m also somewhat new to riding off-road
