My family and I moved from Bellingham, WA (one of the largest biking and hiking communities in the US) to Las Vegas. Growing up in Washington, I could mountain bike right in my backyard. I was part of a vibrant biking community and didn't want to leave that behind when relocating to Vegas. I worried that the outdoor community would be limited since Las Vegas is renowned for its nightlife, entertainment, and heat.
To my pleasant surprise, I discovered that the biking community here was much larger than I had anticipated. Unlike Washington, the Las Vegas hiking and biking community is truly unique; we can enjoy the outdoors all year round.
The goal of Desert Spins is to inspire Las Vegas residents to embrace the great outdoors! Even in the 100-degree heat, we can hike and bike in cooler weather at Mt. Charleston, which is just 30 minutes away from the Strip. The winters here are fantastic, offering countless trails for biking and hiking.
Desert Spins is more than just an average hat company; it’s a lifestyle brand aimed at building a bigger biking community in the Las Vegas Valley and beyond. So go ahead, buy yourself a Five Panel Hat and dominate the desert!
