I’ve mountain biked for 32 years and done shuttles all over the country and the world. These guys are THE BEST, bar none. Part of the credit goes to the awesome trails in the Mt. Wilson Area but Chris from MWMTBA makes life simple with his flexibility and great pricing. Every time I leave town to ride I find myself asking why I didn’t just stay in LA and shuttle with these guys. I have no idea why more people don’t make trips to LA and make a serious riding vacation out of it.”

For experienced mountain bikers looking for an epic ride without the climbing, this is as good as it gets. Four thousand feet of descent with around one thousand feet of climbing along the way. The shuttle is easy to book with multiple departure times throughout the day. Chris will give you any advice you need on finding the right trail down based on your experience and skills. if you have a whole day or weekend there are enough options to do multiple shuttles and experience some of the trails less traveled.

My family of 5 (wife and 3 boys) spent the day with Ken (Guide) and Chris Ashford who runs the business on an all day excursion that was OUTSTANDING, Personalized tour that could not have gone better! They responded to all my questions prior to arriving, had all the bikes ready to go, provided lunch and water, had a overview of the day and the shuttle to the top was SAFE and guided tour on the way down was ideal.

Most people think of shuttling as a way of "cheating" so you don't need to climb, but for those of us that love to climb, shuttles are still a vital part of the riding experience. The ability to be dropped off deep in the mountains and have access to an amazing network of trails that will bring you back to civilization is quite amazing. Similar to classic shuttles such as Cannell Plunge or The Whole E, Mt Wilson MTB Adventure can drop you off for equally as epic trails that will consume all of your climbing and DH strength!!!

hat an amazing way to start the day! The Dawn Patrol shuttle for the Mt Wilson shuttle met at 5:50am at the Windsor Parking lot by JPL. We loaded up our bikes & headed up the hill without pedaling! Our driver Chris was so friendly & informative. The trails are challenging & fun. A few spots I chose to walk. I loved every minute of it! Looking forward to going again & checking out some of the other trail options - like the Darkside & the Enduro Tour.

I’ve been riding this region since 1982 ad I’ve seen much in the evolution of the MTB scene in these mountains, I’ve since graduated recently from self shuttling with friends to the use of this excellent service provided by S.C.O.A. and it’s cut much of the logistics down to allow more time to enjoy riding. sign up and have a blast!
