North Rim Grand Canyon

I am looking for sugestions on where to start (park truck) the Rainbow Rim Trail and which direction to travel. What I have going on is that I only have a half day out there and the person I am with does not ride, so they will be hiking. So it needs to be a out and back, looking for the biggest bag...rim views...in the shortest amount of time.

Bring rigid singlespeed or geared bike?

Thanks Dean

If you head out to Locust Point you will be in the middle of the trail. That will give about 9 miles in either direction. When we went there several years ago we did three camps one at each end and in the middle at Locust. Locust has one of the best camps on the trail. Not at the end of the road at the parking lot but just before there is a spot to get off the road and park. North Timp has a great view form the end of the road as well. You really can't go wrong as the whole trail is pretty much the same.
