Tuff Riders Mountain Bike Club

Who are we?

The "Tuff" in Tuff Riders Mountain Bike Club name comes from the surface of rock that we ride on; not because we're "tough". The Pajarito Plateau is the home of the Tuff Riders Mountain Bike Club. The plateau is capped by a geologic formation called the Bandelier Tuff. This unit is composed of crystal-rich volcanic tuffs (compressed volcanic ash) that were formed by multiple eruptions of the Valle Grande in the Jemez Mountains about 1.22 to 1.61 million years ago. Most of the trails and dirt roads of the Pajarito Plateau are carved on Bandelier Tuff.
