We rode Red Rock just for the fun of it as part of our Vegas vacation last year. We rented bikes for the bike shop down the road, road that stretch to the canyon then rode the 13 mile loop of the canyon.
I never did such steep climbing before and yes, it sure was beautiful.

May can be VERY hot in LV; this route is beautiful, in that stark, desert way; the climbs go on a long way, and there is not much relief from the scorching sun.
The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man. Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish. Only the bicycle remains pure in heart. ~Iris Murdoch, The Red and the Green
